Dave Roth, Percussionist - "Air War & Bows" from King Kong Broadway
GoPro has made it easy to get the feel of what it is like to sit in the chair of a musical theater percussionist. I recorded this during a live performance of King Kong on Broadway at the Broadway Theatre in New York City. This was an incredibly satisfying percussion book to perform. King Kong is definitely the most involved timpani book I have ever played in a 30 year career in musical theater. Chris Jahnke, orchestrator, created a fantastic timpani part that needed every bit of those 4 drums. Warren Odze is rocking the drum book. I offer a performance clinic (A Glimpse Into the World of a Broadway Musician) that takes you from the moment your hired for a Broadway show to the very first performance.
