Inspired By The Ever Popular Snack, Pop! Is A Grade 3 Band Piece By Composer Tawnie Olson That Imitates The Sounds Popping Popcorn Beginning With That First, Single Kernel To The Exploding Sounds Of An Overflowing Pot. Through The Use Of Imitation, Additive Processes, Playful Articulation, And The Development Of Tune Fragments, Olson Crafted A Piece That Is Relatable And Great Fun To Play. Pop! Also Has An Aleatoric Passage That Gives Young Performers The Opportunity To Co Compose By Improvising Sounds That Suggest Of Pop Of Popcorn In The Making.
