Welcome back to the Writing Show Music for Battery Percussion Series Episode 9! In this episode, we are finishing "RACE!".

In this series, we will be writing for what I call an “intermediate +” level battery to help answer a question I get quite often: "What do I write for a group of really good intermediate players looking to get to the next level?" Even though this part of the series will be geared towards percussionists I have tried to produce these videos in such a way so that both percussionists and non-percussionists can benefit from watching.

Today, we will finish "RACE!".

If you would like to download a .pdf and .mp3 file of this score as a template to write your own marching percussion parts, please email me at [email protected].
