Several of his works have become standards of the repertoire for percussion chamber music, such as <i>Conservatory Garden, Septet, and Marimba Quartet.</i> Although Levitan’s percussion music is performed frequently, there is a lack of reference materials and information about his unpitched percussion chamber compositions. This document provides a brief discussion on six of Levitan’s most performed unpitched percussion chamber works: <i>Trio, Variations on a Ghanaian Theme, Septet, Conservatory Garden, Canon at the Bar, and Eight Two-Part Inventions.</i> General background information, a brief analysis of points of interest, and performance suggestions are provided for each of the compositions. The purpose of this document is to serve as a reference for performers, educators, and composers seeking more information about Daniel Levitan and his unpitched percussion chamber works. 2015 English text The Ohio State University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1449143319 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1449143319 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
