Percussion/Bass drum Sheet Music

No marching band can be imagined without this extremely important rhythmic instrument – bass drum can be truly called the band's heart and the key element of the percussion section. You can easily hear this drum from afar and will hardly confuse its sounds with any other. The major percent of the power and loudness is provided by the bass drum. And as every marching band as a rule has a few bass drum players, each playing his/her own different part, the overall sound is really impressive. But bass drum's use is not limited to marching bands – where, however, its role is of vital importance. It can be heard in other music genres as well, and its purpose varies depending on that genre. It can mark the beat, serve as music punctuator, time-keeper, melody voice in such genres as rock'n'roll, jazz, classical music. Geddy Lee, Cliff Burton, John Entwistle are among the most popular bass drum players. Currently there are 1887 music scores for bass drum in MusicaNeo catalogue.
