== Program Notes ==
Thundersnow is a natural phenomenon that happens when snow falls as the primary precipitation of a thunderstorm instead of rain. It is considered rare and must have perfect atmospheric conditions to form. It is more common in the Great Lakes region due to the water of the lakes heating the air above it, creating the appropriate temperature differential to build a static charge needed for lightning. When Miles Locke first heard the term thundersnow, he thought how cool that title would be for a piece. He thought that the juxtaposition between thunder (drums / cymbals) and snow (netakkuc / melodic instruments) would be perfect for a percussion ensemble. Thundersnow was written for the Allen Percussion Ensemble for their performance at the 76th Midwest Clinic. The piece was written to accommodate a wide range of players. With some flexibility in instrumentation provided, Thundersnow can be performed with as few as 18 players and as many as 24 or more.
