Review
This is a short ensemble written for three snare or military drums and three two-tone whistles. The composer notes that it is the intention of the piece to depict a night train ride. The composer indicates that the parts can be doubled to utilize additional players if desired. Technical demands include four-stroke ruffs, flams and single-note combinations. The suggested sticking patterns are presented with open and closed circles for right and left hands. The most challenging aspect of the compositions will be coordinating the accelerandi that opens the piece and the morendo at the finale. The print is very clean, and the brevity of this composition makes this suitable for young to medium-age ensembles. George Frock, December 1995 [1]
