Par SLAWSON BRIAN. In Santa’s Strut, Brian Slawson combines a funky drumset beat and blues-like melodies to form an easy level percussion ensemble piece that’s perfect for a holiday-themed concert requiring minimal rehearsal time. After a brief introduction, the central section of the piece features the mallet instruments playing melodies based on a blues scale, which are contained in a 12-bar blues. These melodies are supported by a lot of fun, toy-like percussion accessories in the background such as sleigh bells, ratchet, temple blocks, vibraslap, and a whip crack. These are important musical concepts to introduce to young performers and Slawson does this in an accessible and fun way. Santa’s Strut comes as a professionally printed and bound score and includes individual parts in PDF format for printing or for tablet viewing. / Niveau : Facile / Date parution : 2021-11-03/ Répertoire / Ensemble de Percussions

Après avoir écrit ?Points d'orientation? (pour xylophone, multi- percussions et piano fin de cycle 1), ?Lock- it? (Concerto pour vibraphone, marimba, timbales et batterie) propose un tour d'horizon des bases instrumentales et musicales demandées en fin de cycle 2. La batterie est utilisée comme dans une une formation de jazz avec des patterns d'accompagnement mais aussi un grand solo écrit. Les timbales mélodiques solliciteront l'interprète sur la justesse dans le pédalage. L'introduction au vibraphone propose une mélodie très simple qui requiert beaucoup de phrasé et de maîtrise dans l'utilisation de la pédale. Enfin, le marimba fera appel à l'indépendance des 4 baguettes dans un ragtime qui va s'enflammer pour finir en variations à 2 baguettes. En résumé, ?Lock it? propose aux percussionnistes d'exprimer leur dextérité, leur musicalité mais surtout leur ?Groove? / Percussion Et Piano
