l Kartoon KlassicsDavid Shaffer. We all know
and love the wonderful characters from the classic
cartoons of yesteryear. This clever reincarnation
of music from those classics opens with Brahms'
Hungarian Dance No.5 as we imagine our favorite
cartoon rabbit in his many adventures. Wagner's
Ride of the Valkyries and Liszt's Hungarian
Rhapsody No.2 give us more musical backgrounds
that brought these comic classics to life. Multiple
percussion effects and clever instrumental writing
will make this a favorite for years to come.

Mallet Maniacs (Mallet Percussion Feature)
Mark Williams. You've got to check this one
out! If you have mallet percussionists in your band,
whether they play marimba, xylophone, bells or
vibraphone, you'll want this piece in your library!
Mark Williams has written an incredibly appealing
tune with a nostalgic comic flair, featuring light
syncopation over a fun bass line, but that's just the
beginning. The real magic in this one is found in
the awesome mallet parts, that can be played by
one or many percussionists! The parts lay easily as
well, and only require two mallets. The glissandos
are on the "natural" notes, so it sounds much more
difficult than it is. Very highly recommended!
