Grade 5 w/ percussion

Posted by not me on 1/16/2025, 3:09 pm

Asking for a friend (yes really):
Can anyone give recommendations for Grade 5 lit. that is percussion heavy?
I only knew of a couple because I don't get to perform that type of lit.
Thanks in advance

A lot of grade 5 Ticheli pieces fit this description. Acadiana and Angels in the Architecture come to mind immediately. Other pieces that come to mind:

Aurora Awakes (Mackey)
Danzon No. 2 (Marquez/Nickel)

There’s so many, almost pick one that isn’t Grainger or Holst.

Ones I’ve played/taught:
Vesuvius
Rocky Point Holiday
Blue Shades
Red Line Tango
Until the Scars
Ride
Music for Prague
