Graphic Portrait

Here is a solid multi-percussion solo scored for four concerts toms, snare drum, and suspended cymbal. The piece centers around march-like 16th-note rhythms and passages requiring independence between the right and left hands. The stickings lay comfortably on the small set-up. The dynamic changes, accents, and rubato introduction allow the player to showcase his or her musicality. All its qualities make Graphic Portrait an excellent piece for the developing multi-percussionist!
