While composers and percussionists are working more closely than
ever with one another, there are few resources that address this
collaborative relationship in depth. However, Samuel Z. Solomon,
himself a percussionist and teacher, offers a comprehensive
examination of the issues that percussionists and composers
encounter in How to Write for Percussion. The first edition,
self-published in 2004, provided musicians and music programs the
world over with practical and indispensible information about
issues of notation, concert production, and much more. This new
edition goes even further as Solomon offers more insights derived
from his personal experience as a percussionist and teacher and
from his collaborations with other musicians. The second edition of
How to Write for Percussion expands the survey of behind-the-scenes
processes-from instrument choice and notation to logistics,
execution, and concert production-to uncover all the tools a
composer needs to comfortably create innovative and skilled
percussion composition. Solomon also includes more excerpts and
performances as well as interviews with famous percussionists and
composers that capture the intricacies of percussion composition.
Moreover, the second edition features an expanded text with more
instruments and more analysis, plus an extensive Online Video
Companion containing over nine hours of videos with demonstrations,
performances, interviews, and analysis to flesh out and clarify the
material in the book. This updated edition of How to Write for
Percussion will appeal to a wide swath of musicians including
composers, arrangers, and percussionists. Those who have already
utilized the first edition will welcome the upgrade, and those who
have yet to benefit from Solomon's perspective will likewise find
his insights illuminating.
