The ensembles are written for six players and structured so each player is given the opportunity to play battery percussion (snare, bass drum, cymbals), timpani, mallet percussion and auxiliary/hand percussion instruments.
Set-up guides and helpful instrument substitutions make this package the quintessential educational tool for teaching and motivating the young percussion ensemble.
This package includes a conductor's score with performance notes and set-up guides as well as six student books. For a thorough tutorial on playing the hand percussion instruments found in this package, click on any of the instrument links below.
