4MalletCapricorn Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 I would love to hear more music for percussion ensembles out there! (I'm rather biased being a percussionist myself) but percussion ensemble music is my favorite kind of music! I write for percussion ensemble myself, but I would love to see other people getting interested and into the world of percussion ensembles and drumelines!

BourgMusic Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 I enjoy writing for timpani and young percussion ensembles. I have written a few pieces that seem to work well. I do not write for drumlines, but this is due the the lack of drumlines where I live. Any full band music I write has some sort of focus on the timpani as a melodic instrument in one way or another. I am not a percussionist, in fact I am a trumpet player, but I enjoy writing for percussion. I know your post is over a year old, but I just came on line.

kentokhromatic Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 I would love to learn more percussion from someone like you. What program do you usually use to write percussion music? How do you set up the staves in the program? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ikqdrum Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 I have written TONS of ensembles and drumline music...that's what I do! LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BourgMusic Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 I would love to learn more percussion from someone like you. What program do you usually use to write percussion music? How do you set up the staves in the program? Sorry about not responding sooner. I have been crazy busy. I use Finale 2010 for my music. I just use the staves available and adjust to suit my needs. I currently have one piece listed in the National Library of Canada. I had a Canadian Publisher pick it up a few years ago. It can be checked out online by typing Soliloquy for Anne. Most of my music is self-published. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Herr Kremlin Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 Percussion doesn't make music cause there is no beautiful melodies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
920bpm Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 lol I like this piece: Simple and awesome. I wrote a percussion miniature for 8 percussionists for a workshop the composers at my uni had with the percussionists. It was recorded, I'll YC it one day...

Old Composer Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 Percussion doesn't make music cause there is no beautiful melodies. ........There are so many things incorrect about this statement. Please elaborate so that we may have a beneficial discussion. I have a piece I'll post in a few weeks. I'm hopefully recording each part individually for a competition recording.
