Today's professional players frequently find themselves performing
in many countries where the availability of percussion instruments can
vary widely. Practical Percussion
contains a section on manufacturers and suppliers all over the world.
In addition to this list of manufacturers, the percussion requirements -
both instruments and players - for some 1500 works are also listed. The
foreword by Pierre Boulez further assists the reader in appreciating
and understanding the richness, variety, and function of percussion
instruments the world over.
