DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Larrick, a percussionist and teacher, assembles an annotated list of publications by Per-Mus, a company based in Columbus, Ohio, that was owned by his mentor James L. Moore, who sought to publish percussion music not printed elsewhere. Larrick aids performers in choosing music by giving information on the level of difficulty of pieces as well as their instrumentation. By incorporating personal anecdotes (both biographical and musical) relating to the pieces, he gives the volume a casual tone. Some pieces included are those by Mozart, Bach, Gounod, Beethoven, Debussy, Kabalevsky, and many lesser known and local composers. Annotation :2005 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com).
