Sorry, but Matt Almire has got to be the most under-recognized tenor drummer in world history. Dude's I&E solo in '92 was a motherfucking clinic. Everybody knows Murray. Everybody knows McNutt. Nobody ever talks about the short guy on the end. 1992 Matt Altmire: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/q66fkqaiv6q4hX0.htmlsi=u95Junj2fBI_FvS0

what is the maraca doing? a triplet form of clave, while the left foot does eighths? I am confused

I am currently a high school percussionist in Texas. I really wanted to perform this solo, and I finally got the chance to play it at solo and ensemble. At first when I was playing this solo, it was just for solo and ensemble purposes. However, the piece was so beautiful that it became a part of who I was when I was performing. Not only did I get a one at state, but I also received the prestigious outstanding performer award. Good luck to everybody that's performing this solo in the future, and my one advice would be to actually embrace what you are playing and play it with all your heart.

Awesome performance. Kinda wish everything was mike up individually so it could be mixed better for stereo. Or maybe some eq to balance it a little better. Regardless, this is great.

what did you use as the mutes? is it something simple that I could just DIY or is it a specific product?

Charlie (Owen) who arranged this was the percussion professor at the University of Michigan for many decades. Terrific percussion teacher. Very nice man. But this is quite corny. I remember that he eventually preferred this to be performed on marimba, as he felt the newer modern xylophone tone color was a bit too "glassy" and sharp as compared to the older warmer tone quality of xylophones when he had originally arranged this long, long ago...

Great music but how about some colorful clothes, more smiles and a little bit more movement on the hips! Are they instructed by adults to be "proper" or something?

I'm definitely not jealous of how the higher percussion group got to play this piece, but not our group. Definitely not.

Hi! I’m performing this piece for my senior recital, and I’m curious which death whistle to get?? There’s so many options and I want to make sure I get a decent one. What mallets are you using as well?
