The creative use of the snare drums rim with the drum head, dynamics and rhythms enhance this interesting, challenging and enjoyable work for the intermediate student. Can be performed by any student with an understanding of eighth, sixteenth notes, sixteenth eighth sixteenth, flams and 5- stroke, 9- stoke rolls, triplet sixteenth eight, and eight triplet sixteenth. This work would be perfect for any solo and ensemble festival.
