Any fans of Countdown will perhaps have realised that Scillatem is Metallics spelt backwards. Metallic instruments are the staple diet of this piece, and whatever wind chimes or Marktrees that can be found, should be played whenever possible throughout, as a kind of back drop. Percussionists 1-4 may seem to have any easier job than the tuned players, but it is essential they keep the time, particularly the agogo bell player!
