Week of April 27th – Percussion Only

Activity 1- Find a percussion ensemble piece that you think your ensemble can handle and that you would like to try in the future. To find one, I suggest using Tapspace or Rowloff (links below)https://www.tapspace.com/percussion-ensemble/

Percussion Ensemble Sheet Music – TapspaceThis arrangement of Ravel’s masterpiece recreates the colorful and vibrant work for percussion ensemble. This piece will challenge performers and engage audiences with its accessible Spanish flair.www.tapspace.com
