Afwa Yuovu

$20.00

With the title “welcome white-man,” this piece is reminiscent of a trip to Ghana. The piece is based in 7/8 time to give a feeling of unfamiliarity while the tonality and composition techniques emulate a traditional Gyli player (Degara region xylophone).

Full Circle

$20.00

The inspiration for this piece came when I heard the saying “everything comes ’round full circle,” by several people in a short period of time. “Full Circle” is based on that saying.

No Evil

$9.00

Intermediate to advanced technique is required for a successful performance of this theatrical timpani solo. Each movement is about two minutes in length, making the entire three-movement suite appropriate for the undergraduate timpanist. This composition should be performed as an entire unit and would be an excellent selection for a junior or senior undergraduate recital.- Jim Lambert, Percussive Notes

Toccata & Grooves

$8.00

For solo multiple percussionist.”Toccata and Grooves” is enjoyable for listener and performer alike. The work is not nearly as difficult as many new multiple percussion solos and not particularly time and space consuming as some, which can be a good thing.- Susan Martin Tariq, Percussive Notes
