Required and
Recommended Literature for Applied Percussion Study
Bachelor of Arts and Music Minor
Rationale:
This is not an
all-inclusive list, but rather a suggestive sampling of
material, which may be studied in the percussion studio.
Entering first year undergraduate students must purchase and
bring the books in "bold" to campus. Do not wait until you
come to school to purchase these items. They are not available
from the university bookstore. Most of these may be purchased
from the following sources:
