Four sessions for tuned percussion

Edited for tablet and/or printing to give a more versatile product.  The short accessible pieces have been devised to enhance the lesson (beginning or end) by developing reading and listening skills and to work alongside other music used during the lesson.  The pieces are composed as ensemble parts rather than a solo works which also gives the student experience of band and orchestra style playing.

A collection of four sessions, 12 tracks + bonus, with music minus one accompaniment tracks.  Featured instruments are glockenspiel (bells), two timpani and xylophone. Simple parts that teach listening and ensemble skills and develop the playing to track abilities that are becoming ever more prevalent in the learning and performance of music.

The more energetic tracks are News and Chase with a contrast in Gentle Underscore and create a sense of the unknown in Tense Drama. The album of accompaniment tracks is available to download for free (or make a further donation) at https://urbanskyline.bandcamp.com/album/four-sessions-for-tuned-percussion

The bonus track Powerful Percussion has a timpani part which can be used with the bonus tracks from Four sessions for drums and Four sessions for hand percussion to perform as a percussion trio as well.
