Description

Colin McNutt is one of the hottest names in marching percussion today. Currently the caption head and arranger for the Cadets Drum & Bugle Corps, Colin has been at the helm of many great programs over the last 20 years. In 1992, he aged out of drum corps with the Santa Clara Vanguard alongside fellow tenor drummers and Violent Tenor Cream co-contributors Murray Gusseck, Matt Altmire, Mark Campbell, and Mike Apodaca.

Colin's percussive genius had early beginnings with Scrape Ape. Colin was awarded 1st place for his performance of this solo at the 1992 Drum Corps International Individual & Ensemble competition (followed by runners-up Matt Altmire and Mark Campbell!). One of unique features of the piece is that portions of it were freely improvised on the spot. These have been carefully transcribed and added into the written sections to complete the final version presented here. Hope you brought an appetite for notes…and scrapes!

This solo also appears in the tenor solo
compilation book Violent Tenor Cream.

This 60-second warmup was heard played by the Santa Clara Vanguard drumline in 2002 written by David Reeves as a tribute to drum corps icon Ralph Hardimon, who shaped much of what people know today as the SCV percussion sound. Ralph Speak is a rhythmically complex piece which requires both chops and finesse to perform. For drumlines with brains and brawn, this piece is sure to lay it on the line!
