Batterie | Colin Shaw

‘Batterie’, which is French for ‘Percussion’, is a piece for 6 players, 2 of which need to be competent with playing tuned parts, although they are quite simple.
All parts have lots of percussion to enjoy.
The tambourine needs to be mounted.
Train whistles are mostly tri-tone, are fairly cheap, and can be purchased from good
retailers on the internet.
