Pecking Order

. . . ideal literature for helping two
high school snare drummers perfect ensemble performance skills required in a
drum line. -

This rudimental snare drum duet,
written in 6/8 and 4/4 meters, incorporates many of the musical and technical
techniques required in contemporary rudimental snare drum performance.
Using flams, diddles, backsticking, stick clicks, cheeses, flam-drags,
and paradiddles, as well as rapid unison figures and metric modulation, this
duet is an exciting and challenging piece for both performers.
Pecking Order would be a great addition to a
percussion ensemble concert or recital, or can simply be used for technique
development for intermediate to advanced rudimental students.
