About this arrangement

Percussion Septet (4 timpani, Suspended cymbal, Drums (snare drum, tenor drum, bass drum), Accessories (temple blocks, brake drum)) - Med-Easy SKU: TA.TSPCE19-014 For percussion septet. Composed by David K. Bakken. Percussion Ensembles. Folio & Parts on CD-ROM. Tapspace Publications #TSPCE19-014. Published by Tapspace Publications (TA.TSPCE19-014). David K. Bakken's septet, The King of Epic Validation, was named after one of his students, Kevin (K-King, E-Epic, V-Validation). The idea is that by successfully managing each of the varying time signatures presented in the piece, the performers would feel a strong sense of accomplishment, and therefore validated in their musical achievement. In addition to managing these time signatures, this piece, though sometimes short-lived, gives each performers the opportunity to be featured. As Bakken puts it, [As teachers,] providing an opportunity for our students to excel is our highest ambition. This piece comes as a professionally printed and bound score and includes individual parts in PDF format for printing or for tablet viewing.
