Performance Notes
The snare drum, bass drum and percussion parts should remember to keep a steady beat. The percussion part can mount both the tambourine and triangle if needed, but the best method would be to use a stand or trap table covered with a towel to set the instruments on when they are not being used. Change them as quickly and quietly as possible.
Letter A - Make sure the melody in the xylophone is a little louder than the accompaniment part in the Glockenspiel.
Letter C - The snare drum and bass drum should rock-out for four bars before bringing in the other players. Care should be taken in measure 31 not to rush beat 3.
