      @@TheBryceholden i think it's because they're not bracketed in the music sheet i got, but i felt like they were important places in the piece so i put them in there just in case others felt the same. it's been like, 4 years since i played this piece so i'm not 100% sure lol

    This was the funnest percussion thing to play ever. We had everyone doing something. Bass, snare, timpani, sizzle cymbal, crash cymbal, hi-hat, xylophone, marimba, (I had the bells part). All sorts of little accessories. It was incredibly epic.
