Tapspace Apotheosis by Alan Keown

Apotheosis by Alan Keown is a multi-percussion duet featuring two identical setups. This piece begins quietly in 7/8 + 7/8 + 3/8 time (like the Yes song Changes), travelling through several different sections that are through-composed.

This piece is thinly orchestrated, allowing the audience to clearly understand the interaction between the two players, whether they're splitting parts or playing unison licks. This piece would make an excellent venture into the world of multi-percussion for two performers.

Difficulty: Medium +

Duration: 5:00

Setup:

  • Splash Cymbals (3), Brake Drums (2)
  • Bongos (2 Sets), Bass Drums (2)
  • High Toms (2), Low Toms (2)

This piece comes with a score in a professionally-bound folio with a CD that contains individual parts and an audio recording.
