Impetus (Perc Ens 5)

Using traditional instruments available in most high school band rooms, David Long created a wonderfully effective piece for small percussion ensemble. Brief slow and free introduction, followed by a fast rhythmic section in 3 leading to an impressive conclusion. Perfect piece for any high school percussion ensemble or young college ensemble.
