Sycamore-Ready Player 4

Ready Player 4 is a collection of quartets designed to elevate the playing level of your percussionists by introducing students to ensemble playing as well as several new techniques, like thumb rolls, crush buzzes, muted triangle, etc. that they might not be exposed to in the concert band setting. Six quartets at three levels, battery and mixed instrumentation, allow for a variety of instruments, configuration, and skill.
