Solo #6 From Portraits in Rhythm

Here is solo #6 from Portraits in Rhythm by Anthony Cirone. This landmark orchestral snare drum book was written in the 1960's and continues to be very relevant today. The solos are for the intermediate to advanced student and are terrific for teaching musicality, phrasing, dynamics and rhythmic proficiency.
Equipment:
Snare Drum: Pearl Philharmonic 20 Ply Tamo Ash 5"x 14" Drum
Sticks: Rick Dior custom Tigerwood heavy concert sticks 80 grams with a small barrel tip.
You can see all of the sticks that I make at www.rickdior.com/sticks
Contact me at rickdior@gmail .com if you want to order a pair.
The metronome I am using is a Yamaha Click Station. The headphones are Bose and the mikes are AKD 414.
