Dynamic Solos for Mallets offers an appealing array of performance pieces designed to foster a musical approach to keyboard playing. Students are exposed to the use of dynamics in a gradual, coherent fashion, making it easy to understand their use as one of the essential vehicles for expression in music. Fundamental techniques in analysis are also stressed in order to fortify reading skills. Ideal for solo as well as concert use, these catchy works are written in a style that is sure to captivate students, as well as their audiences. A Federation Festivals 2020-2024 selection.
