Amandi-Membrano/Rotazio a tre(SP)

The Junior Percussion series has been conceived in practice for use in practice. The ensemble pieces published here are "cut to size" for music school students. Each volume included two pieces which generally share the same orchestration and level of difficulty.

In Membrano a Tre, each player is given a 4-bar theme. These themes are repeated together, successively and against each other, in full or split up.

In Rotazio a Tre, each musician plays an ostinato rhythm as well as an 8-bar theme. These themes occur in complete and shortened version, either at the same time or one after the other.

Number of Players: 3
Difficulty: Grade 3
Instrumentation:
Player I: Snare Drum
Player II: Tom-Tom
Player III: 1 Timpani (or Bass Drum)
