Percussion music is both the oldest and most recent of musical
genres and exists in diverse forms throughout the world. This
Companion explores percussion and rhythm from the perspectives of
performers, composers, conductors, instrument builders, scholars,
and cognitive scientists. Topics covered include percussion in
symphony orchestras from the nineteenth century to today and the
development of percussion instruments in chapters on the marimba
revolution, the percussion industry, drum machines, and the effect
of acoustics. Chapters also investigate drum set playing and the
influences of world music on Western percussion, and outline the
roles of percussionists as composers, conductors, soloists, chamber
musicians, and theatrical performers. Developments in scientific
research are explored in chapters on the perception of sound and
the evolution of musical rhythm. This book will be a valuable
resource for students, percussionists, and all those who want a
deeper understanding of percussion music and rhythm.
