Ralph Hicks and
Eric Rath, co-authors of
the popular Five Minute
Drill, Nine Minute Drill,
and Beyond Basic
Percussion are partners
in crime yet again
bringing this charming
collection of xylophone
solos to the world of
percussion. The Golden
Age of Ragtime features
some of the most
quintessential pieces of
American music like Maple
Leaf Rag by Scott Joplin
and Funny Folks by W.C.
Powell. These authentic
ragtime xylophone solos
can be played with piano
accompaniment, four-part
marimba ensemble, or
both!
Going one
step further, Hicks and
Rath have provided
supplemental content in
an effort to give an
educational experience to
performers. They've
provided a brief history
of ragtime, a full page
of tips for more unique
performances, suggested
mallets for performance,
and each solo is
accompanied with a list
of historical facts
pertaining to the year
the solo was written.
This book is a must for
any percussion
educator!
