Stick Steady is a lively piece that sounds deceptively difficult when performed. However, it is written in cut-time for ease of reading. Rhythms are limited to quarter notes and re sts, grouped eighth notes and whole rests. Additionally, half rests are represented as 2 quarter rests. Much of this piece is either in unison or close to it. The snare and tom-tom players each get a 1-bar solo as you approach the outro. There is a wide range of dynamic markings for this octet, as well as crescendos during solos, which should be followed closely to make it the exciting piece that it is.
