Here are some early Beatles tunes written for percussion ensemble. The glockenspiel and bass part are probably the easiest and some of the tuned parts are quite hard. Additional auxiliary percussion could be added.
Score & Parts: Glockenspiel, Xylophone, Marimba 1, Marimba 2, Vibraphone, Bass & Drum Kit
This medley is a tribute to the early years of the Beatles. The songs selected featured each of the "Fab Four" on lead vocals along with Ringo Starr and Paul McCartney's signature early grooves.
