percussion programs for decades. This book contains some of the technical
exercises and musical excerpts that make the gears turn for one of the

tenors, bass) as well as the front ensemble. Exercises are written in
score form and contain written guidelines from Cavaliers staff members
on how to approach the musical concepts involved. Technical guidelines
