Intermediate Studies for Developing Artists on Keyboard Percussion

This collection of exercises, melodies, and excerpts is designed to inspire the intermediate two-mallet player with music that is both musically expressive and technically challenging. Selections cover a wide range of dynamics, phrasing and articulation in a variety of tempos, styles and genres. The examples become progressively more difficult as new technical and musical concepts are introduced. The book includes additional information about each piece, the composer, and the historical time period, as well as definitions of musical terms.
