Performance Notes

 Duet Symmetry is a medium-slow tempo duet for two snare drums.  This piece is best suited for high school level percussionists.  Rhythmically, Duet Symmetry contains 16th notes and triplets, dotted 1/8th and ample flam accents.  Rolls should be felt as 16th note triplets.  Therefore, a roll on an 1/8th note will be 7-stroke and a roll on a ¼ note will be 13- stroke.

 Duet Symmetry is introduced with trade-offs, in p, with snare 2 essentially echoing snare 1.  Letter C is a sort of call-and-response.  Some ‘responses’ are not a copy of the ‘call.’ Players alternate between call-and-response and unison at E.  Letter F begins with a re-stating of the introduction, this time in mf, but with one measure echoes instead of two.
