About this arrangement

Snare solo compilation - Med-Advanced SKU: TA.TSPB-41 Composed by Patrick McLaughlin. Books & Education. Eight contemporary snare drum solos inspired by renowned artists. Book. Tapspace Publications #TSPB-41. Published by Tapspace Publications (TA.TSPB-41). Patrick McLaughlin's The Canvas Series is a unique collection of snare drum solos, where the subject of each solo is a famous painter of the 20th century. In his own creative way, McLaughlin uses the snare drum as a canvas to paint a portrait of each of the eight artists and their work. For example, in No. 3: Vincent van Gogh, McLaughlin uses soft buzz rolls within a slow tempo to depict Van Gogh painting in a breezy, picturesque field on a warm spring day. In No. 8: Salvador Dali, he uses sharp and angular rhythms with disjunct accents to depict Dali's surreal and strange paintings. Much like the subjects of McLaughlin's solos, this collection is one-of-a-kind. Each solo will add a level of introspection to any recital program or individual study. Included in this collection: No. 1: M.C. Escher No. 2: Henri Matisse No. 3: Vincent van Gogh No. 4: Pablo Picasso No. 5: Andy Warhol No. 6: Claude Monet No. 7: Jackson Pollock No. 8: Salvador Dali The Canvas Series ships as a fully-bound book with a beautifully designed cover, reminiscent of Van Gogh's Starry Night and Monet's Water Lilies.
