Taking its aesthetic cue from Taiko and Kyoto style drumming by using “floating” arm motions, Steven Wulff’s Taiko à la Tom-tom features four percussionists each with a single tom. The musical material of the piece consists of quarter, eighth, and sixteenth-note motives which are passed around the ensemble. This gives the performers a perfect first-time exposure to chamber music, where they will develop their listening and responding skills. This piece comes as a professionally printed and bound score and includes individual parts in PDF format for printing or for tablet viewing.
