The Voyage - Allen Houston [DIGITAL SCORE]

Performed by the New Braunfels High School Percussion Ensemble, directed by Brad Arnold Published by C. Alan Publications (www.c-alanpublications.com) "The Voyage" is a unique piece, in that it requires the performers to move to different instruments throughout the performance. Two sets of parts are included: one set for the individual players to practice with and one set to be placed at each instrument station. The piece is set primarily in a quick 7/8 meter with departures to more common meters such as 3/4 and 4/4. The harmonic and rhythmic language is such that performers and audiences alike will love to take "The Voyage." Instrumentation: All of the players move around the various "instrument stations," so this is a list of all the instruments needed: Bells 3-octave Vibraphone 4-octave Marimba 4.3-octave Marimba Temple Blocks Xylophone 2-octave Crotales 4 Timpani Snare Drum Bongos 4 Concert Toms 2 Congas Chimes
