Spare Change

This piece, scored for 3 mallet instruments, timpani, and 6 battery parts, has a chipper, bubbly character with plenty of ear appeal. The individual lines are syncopated but simple, both melodically and rhythmically. The charm of the piece is in the way the lines work together in an eighth-note pulse that grooves from beginning to end. Your intermediate ensemble will have a great time rehearsing this one. Your audience will love it too!
