You are purchasing high quality sheet music PDF files suitable for printing or viewing on digital devices.April 2006: YEA!! My first sale of this piece. Thank you to whom ever made the purchase and an even bigger thank you for purchasing a copy for yourself and your partner in the performance. I would like to soon compose a second piece like this and this kind of encouragement will make it that much more posssible.
This piece was concieved as a serious chamber piece, inspired by five semesters of Dalcroze instruction as a college undergrad. Only after sitting on it and thinking about the form and material did any non-musical staging ideas come to light. The basketball should be dribbled, not struck or slapped. Anyone interested in the entire program notes (the non-musical ideas that I dreamt up) please email me with "Sonata 4 Timp & Bball" in the subject line. Thank you.
