Dedicated to the composer's young daughter who is fascinated with everything in the night sky, StarDancer alternates between light-hearted, spinning dances and more raucous, foot-stomping dances.

PERFORMANCE NOTES
The piece may be performed with as few as 5 players (Bells, Xylophone, & the 3 Percussion parts). If you add a 6th player, add Timpani first. If you have even more players, add Marimba 2, then Marimba 1, and then you can experiment with doubling the Bells and Xylophone with Vibraphone and Marimba, respectively. Additionally, the three percussion parts are written so they are each playable by one person or they may be split into two players each.

The IGNITE Series for the Developing Percussion Ensemble
This unique series was designed specifically for young percussionists as they experience the magic of playing in a percussion ensemble. Each piece provides the director and students with great flexibility – from the number of players to the tempo to the instrumentation.
