Friday Night Concerts: Super Mario Percussion
It’s baseball season! We’ll go with Super Mario tunes for the next couple of weeks of concerts, leading up to the launch of Mario Super Sluggers. Whoa. Forgot that was coming, didn’t you?
Mario themes are super popular with percussion ensembles for that non-challenging, novelty piece during a percussion ensemble concert. As such, it was not hard at all to find something to pick for this week. I decided to go with an April 15, 2007 performance by the Rollins College Percussion Ensemble - I figured better instruments, more experienced players, and hopefully more mature musicians than the high school ensemble videos out there.
