Lonely City Suite suite for snare drum in three movements Percussion - Sheet Music

SKU: TA.TSPCS-06

Written in three movements by Jason Baker, Lonely City Suite is an outstanding new solo for concert snare drum. It requires a virtuosic approach to the instrument and demands a high level of technical proficiency towards extreme dynamics and touch.

The first movement, Another Day in the Back Bay, combines techniques found in many orchestral snare drum etudes and groove-like micro-temporal structures. The second movement, Things Fall Apart, is intended to be a mixed-meter funeral march. The third movement, Last One Out, is in short rondo form (A-B-A-C-A) with the content of the B and C sections consisting of expanding rhythmic cells.
