Publisher Desc.  Four Stars On The Horizon is a percussion quartet that is ideal for middle school, junior high school groups, and also fun for high school groups. It is written for snare drum, bass drum, 4 concert toms and tambourine. The snare drum and concert toms parts allow more experienced players to shine while the bass drum and tambourine use only quarter and eighth notes so less experienced players can join in on the fun. The piece begins in full force with the whole group and then settles into a nice groove. The piece builds to a climax, then a snare roll leads into a faster rhythm on the concert toms. After some ups and downs, and some call and response sections, the piece builds to the end. Throughout the piece, each player gets a chance to shine in short solos.
