Schick-Percussionist's Art (Online Audio Access)

The Percussionists Art: Same Bed, Different Dreams is a book about solo percussion music. Not long ago the very notion of a percussion soloist would have seemed ludicrous. Imagine a soloist taking the stage. However instead of tuning a Stradivarius or dusting off the keyboard of a Steinway, a percussionist takes a bow and sits amid a junk heap of instruments often bought at auto salvage yards, kitchen supply and hardware stores, garden shops, and specialty percussion stores.

Includes an online audio recording of Steve Schick performing standard solo percussion repertoire.
