Describe the timbre and rhythm of the three percussion “voices” (parts) that make up the percussion accompaniment to the whistled melody

What will be an ideal response?

• High-pitched ostinato part (performed by the scissors) on the upbeat of counts 2, 3, and 4
• Middle voice is active, quick notes increasing the density of the music's overall rhythmic texture
• Lowest-pitched bass sound (inking stamp) plays occasional fills
