Again by John Herndon

Repetition is everywhere in nature—the daily arc of the sun, the monthly dance of the moon, the yearly journey of our planet. As human beings, repetition is also vital for our growth and learning. Again by John Herndon is a reflection on this concept; one that will help younger percussionists gain confidence and maturity in performance.

Composed for twelve players but adaptable to as few as six, the piece employs repeating rhythms, riffs, harmonies, and melodies arranged in such a way as to keep them fresh and evolving while holding the students’ interest.

Each performance is a fresh iteration, a reminder that while rhythms may repeat, no two days – or plays – are quite the same.
