As the title suggests, Deleclusiastics is a tribute to the famed French percussionist and composer, Jacques Delécluse and his indelible collection of snare drum works, Douze Études pour Caisse-Claire. In his piece, thematic material is quoted from the first etude, a piece of standard repertoire for percussion pedagogy, auditions, juries, and recitals. These themes are brilliantly woven into a stream of challenging rudimental gestures but still recognizable to anyone who has played the original. Rudimental and concert styles are blended masterfully. As such, this piece can be performed on a concert snare drum or a marching snare drum.
