Fading Away was originally composed for an Indoor Concert Percussion ensemble for use in WGI competitions. It was also later re-arranged into a marching show called “Red Shadow”.
This piece goes through a few different sections to provide a few different opportunities to learn different musical styles. From bombastic, aggressive, and driving, to melancholy and ballad-like. There is even an opportunity to feature a drum set soloist near the end if you wish, though I’ve also written a soli to be played by the many players in that section if you prefer.
