Die Fleder-Rag by Johann Strauss II is a wonderful staple of modern orchestras everywhere. Stephen Primatic has arranged this fun, light-hearted rag for six mallet percussionists and three percussion parts, making for a total of 9 players in this large ensemble arrangement!
This piece is relaxed, light-hearted, fun to listen to, catchy, and has simple melodies that are easy for audiences to enjoy. Great for any ensemble concert!
