Ticker Tape is a percussion ensemble piece for twelve players and CD that is a mathmatical, musical representation of the 1929 Stock Market Crash. One stock is assigned to each of the twelve players as the stocks rise and fall over the course of thirty-four days selected from 1928 to 1932, which were chosen based on significant and record-breaking dates prior to and after the Crash mentioned in John Kenneth Galbraith's, The Great Crash of 1929.

"Grotokra" - Full Score - $50.00
Written by Erica Jett in 1998, "Grotokra" for four percussionists is written in three continuous sections based on Erica's experience as the Percussionist with Theater Grottesco's original production, "The Angel's Cradle" from 1997-1999. Much like Chinese Opera, Erica's role was to be heard throughout the show but never seen until the curtain call. The unconventional instrumentation stems mostly from the instrumentation of the show which was a collaboration between sound designer JA Deane, the actors/artistic directors, and Erica. However each section also abstractly represents three cities from the tour: Albuquerque, Minneapolis, and Detroit.

"Grotokra" was premiered and recorded in 2001 by Cibola High School's percussion ensemble in Albuquerque under Erica's direction. A great piece for an advanced high school or beginning college level percussion ensemble. Duration is approximately 5 minutes. Performance notes and instrument explanations are included.
