A Kit of Fun from Pennine Music

Pennine Music has the perfect concert showcase work for your star drum-kit player for the Summer...

Pennine Music
 

A new release entitled, 'A Kit of Fun' by Gavin Somerset will give your band's drum-kit player a great moment in the spotlight this Summer.

The laid back, easy listening composition is tailored to take the spotlight and to showcase the skills and talent your kit player has. It's accessible to players of all levels, and more importantly — fantastic fun for everyone.

Ad lib

Whilst the kit part is clearly written out, the soloist is advised to 'ad lib' throughout, allowing the player to make their part as easy or as complex as they wish!

This is great showcase item that is just something different from the norm to suit all concert programmes.
