Peyton-Primitive Echoes(SP)-C/3T/P

Primitive Echoes by Jeffrey Peyton for percussion quartet. This work explores the often-overlooked expressive qualities of percussion instruments. A number of unique but easy-to-learn techniques give the players a variety of new sounds to explore, and the challenge of playing this quiet and haunting piece will bring a new understanding of their instruments.

Instrumentation:
Player 1 - snare drum, low tom tom, chimes
Player 2 - tam tam, suspended cymbal, sizzle cymbal, sleigh bells, 3 temple blocks
Player 3 - bass drum, maracas
Player 4 - 3 timpani, suspended cymbal
