SMALL PERCUSSION<br />

24 | 25<br />

New Perspectives<br />

Small percussion instruments offer a host of expansion options for a sonically<br />

diverse ensemble. They tend to contribute to a lively atmosphere.<br />

Their applications are sheer infinite: they are often used to add a sense of<br />

rhythm or to accentuate specific passages. And they are equally suited for<br />

stand-alone rhythm sections and for improvising based on creative elements.<br />

Ask your group, for instance, which sounds or animals the instrument reminds<br />

them of—you will be surprised by their imagination and the perceptions that<br />

these kinds of associations trigger.<br />

It is always a good idea to have a bunch of small-percussion instruments on<br />

hand to be able to invite newcomers or relatives to join in.
