Description
Why are marches always in 2/4? Well, this one isn’t. A fun and light-hearted composition for every dog-lover. The performer gets to use extended playing techniques in order to produce sound effects for this highly impressionistic piece. In addition to a 3.5 octave mallet keyboard, the instrumentation also involves high-pitched drum/s in order to replicate the sound of a ‘yappy’ dog. Utilising only double vertical strokes, this entry-level composition will give the student a ‘leg-up’ as they begin their 4-mallet journey.
