Composer Notes

Instruments that are used in different Percussion parts (f.i. Tamtam in Perc. 3 & 6), can be shared. The “Trash Cymbal” can be made by placing 2 (old) crash cymbals (different sizes) over each other, optionally taped together. “Plastic bucket” & “Metal sound”: Try to find gear that sounds dynamic, “cinematic” and powerful; considered as “full” percussion instruments. All melodic instrument parts are being played with 2 mallets. In the singing part, notes can be sung one octave higher when too low.
