Joyful, Joyful We Adore Thee

A delightful percussion quartet that incorporates bells (mallets), timpani (optional), snare drum, cymbals and bass drum. The snare drum is integral through out establishing a martial-march style while supplemented with the bass drum and cymbals. The bells provide the melodic material moving in and out to add variety. The piece ends with an abrupt punctuation. A truly spirited piece for the younger performer.
