With very few studies exisiting for the Snare Drum Keiskleiriana 1 fills a very large gap. Deriving from orchestral Snare Drum parts these Delécluse studies have been developed to cover aspects such as technical and rhythmical difficulties. Keiskleiriana 1 is compiled by Jacques Delécluse a French percussionist and composer. For many years Delécluse has been a soloist in the Orchestre de Paris and more recently founded an ensemble of Keyboard percussion instruments which bears his name. As an experienced percussionist himself and with much invaluable experience Delécluse's Keisleiriana 1 for Snare Drum is well-informed and essential to aspiring percussion players.
