20th Century Orchestral Snare Drum Studies by Thomas McMillan

20th Century Orchestral Snare Drum Studies mark a new departure in percussion literature. Now, for the first time, students can develop an understanding of the rhythmic techniques used by contemporary composers.

Such devices as asymmetrical meters, asymmetrical divisions, shifted accents, changing meters, and superimposed rhythms are abundantly provided for study.

Upon completing the studies in this book, the percussionist will be able to perform with greater agility the complex music of the 20th century.
