Nikita Dawn (Yama Mama Moto) by Steve Kastuck

Inspired by the story of Niguma Hirake, who served in the Japanese Navy during WWII. The performer controls the performance of this creative and inspirational snare drum solo. It makes an ideal concert or recital piece. The performer determines when and how rhythmic sections are performed. Each section has its own degree of difficulty, with its own level of dynamic choices. Suitable for the advanced high school, college or professional level performer. This is a truly an exceptional show piece.
