Tropical Sunshine is a perfect choice for budding musicians, offering them an opportunity to explore various musical elements, including expanded percussion parts and sounds. This piece has parts for seven different percussionists, but can be easily performed with more or less.This piece directly correlates with the Foundation Warm-Up Series, specifically set five. The series is designed to follow most beginning band methods. The early sets focus primarily on airflow, common patterns, and reinforcing concepts presented in the method books. As the series develops, the sets become more like a traditional band warm-up, including long tones, flexibility exercises, articulation, scale patterns, and a chorale.
