RECITAL DUETS FOR SNARE DRUM.......................$24.95
by Garwood Whaley
The CD included with this volume allows the performer several options.
By playing the CD through both stereo channels, both parts of the duet
will be heard. By playing only one channel (turning one speaker off),
each individual duet part will be separated, providing a duet accompaniment
to the other part. This allows for effective and enjoyable practice as
well as the ability to perform "live" using the CD as accompaniment.
