Eight on 3 and Nine on 2 by Robert Marino is exactly a multi-percussion duet that will put an audience of the edge of their seat. This piece, written for eight pitched Toms, two rototoms, two bongos, and a bass drum, will test the performers abilities to play incredibly fast and split rhythms with one another while facing each other and sharing the drums.
This piece truly is all about teamwork, the rhythms and instruments are shared between both players who will have to remain completely in sync with one another from start to finish for a polished performance.
