The Vampire Suite is a percussion suite of four Act's, each having anywhere from six to ten parts.  It is aproximately 60 minutes long.  It can be performed as a percussion suite or can be performed with dance to tell the 4 distinct stories.   Each Act is based on a short story written between 1800 and 1920. The stories are "The Vampire Maid" by Hume Nisbit, "Dracula's Guest" by Bram Stroker, "Clarimonde" by Theophile Gautier and "Wake Not the Dead" by Ernst Raupach.

It would take 4-6 percussionists of an intermediate to advanced level.  The Marimba parts, being the most difficult, could also be played by a pianist on piano.
