Parthun-Vanishing Warriors-M

Vanishing Warriors by Jeffrey Parthun is a 3 mallet solo (2 left, i right) that is designed to introduce beginning or intermediate mallet players to multiple mallet playing. The modal flavor and variety of styles, especially the "tribal" rhythmic feeling in the final section will capture any player's imagination.

This piece is part of the Good n' Easy Solo Series for The Developing Percussionist by Jeffrey Parthun. This series of easy solos composed by Jeffrey T. Parthun, Sr., an experienced music educator, percussionist, and composer, is a most welcome addition to the teaching and performance literature for the developing percussionist. Useful and enjoyable material for students young and old alike, these solos are both musically interesting and technically rewarding.
