While composers and percussionists are working more closely than ever with one another, there are few resources that address this collaborative relationship in depth. Samuel Z. Solomon, himself a percussionist and teacher, offers How to Write for Percussion to fill this longstanding need. The first edition, self-published in 2004, provided musicians and music programs the world over with practical and indispensible information about issues of notation, concert production, and much more. This new edition expands the survey of behind-the-scenes processes-from instrument choice and notation to logistics, execution, and concert production-to uncover the tools a composer needs to comfortably create innovative and skilled percussion composition. Featuring an extensive Online Video Companion containing over nine hours of videos with demonstrations, performances, interviews, and analysis, How to Write for Percussion is sure to appeal to a wide swath of musicians and composers. Those familiar with the first edition will welcome the upgrade, and those who have yet to benefit from Solomon's perspective will find his insights illuminating. Book jacket.

The Encyclopedia of Percussion is an extensive guide to percussion instruments, organized for research as well as general knowledge. Focusing on idiophones and membranophones, it covers in detail both Western and non-Western percussive instruments. These include not only instruments whose usual sound is produced percussively (like snare drums and triangles), but those whose usual sound is produced concussively (like castanets and claves) or by friction (like the cuíca and the lion’s roar). The expertise of contributors have been used to produce a wide-ranging list of percussion topics. The volume includes: (1) an alphabetical listing of percussion instruments and terms from around the world; (2) an extensive section of illustrations of percussion instruments; (3) thirty-five articles covering topics from Basel drumming to the xylophone; (4) a list of percussion symbols; (5) a table of percussion instruments and terms in English, French, German, and Italian; and (6) an updated section of published writings on methods for percussion.
