Solo for two snare drums. Composed by Jeff Queen. Solos: Snare Drum. Folio. Duration 3'00. Tapspace Publications #TSPCS-38. Published by Tapspace Publications (TA.TSPCS-38).

Double Flag is a flagship snare drum solo by Jeff Queen. In true Queen fashion, the piece calls for two snare drums--one with a Kevlar head and one with a Mylar head. Add to that recipe six thimbles for finger playing, an Evans X-treme Patch(tm) (recommended, but not required) for effects, and a healthy infusion of chops; the result is 3 minutes of straight-up Queen-tastic craziness!

Dedicated to fellow Tapspace artist Chip Webster, Queen explains how it was inspired by Webster's keen ability to produce clean-sounding rhythmic articulations with just the fingers...hence the thimble section at the beginning.

This is a very advanced solo for the player with high ambitions. Break yourself off a piece!

This piece ships as a printed, professionally bound folio with a full-color cover.
