Three Movements is written based on the idea that students at all levels can enjoy playing together. There are challenges on many levels, but also quite simple parts. Hopefully, this will benefit percussion ensembles at music school and conservatory preparatory levels. The idea is to further one’s experience so that one can advance to harder and more difficult parts.
Three Movements can be played by six to eight musicians. The percussion parts (the unpitched) can either be gathered together on a kind of drum set or handed out to as many musicians.
The musical style is strongly inspired by my own background and working day as a musician in an opera orchestra. Prokofiev, Shostakovich and Ravel have a big place in my heart and has inspired me through their tonal language (mostly in the second and third movements). The melodic style is a conscious choice to give, especially the very young, a motivation to learn the pieces and enjoy playing them.
