Pritsker-Cancer Ward (SP)-V/M/DS/P

Cancer Ward for Percussion Quartet is written by Gene Pritsker. Pritsker's use of instrumentation and tempos creates a very distinct timbre in this piece and is a bit haunting at times. This is an excellent piece to feature a smaller group within a larger percussion ensemble because the instrumentation is very standard.
