This document is dedicated to my loving and beautiful wife, Nicole as our first year wedding anniversary present. Thank you for your patience, sacrifice, and support throughout the process. Sorry it is a year late. Also to my loving and supportive parents, Roger and Carla Carelock. Thank you for never letting me give up on my dream and for making constant sacrifices throughout the long journey. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I wish to honor Jacque Delécluse, who died during the creation of this document on October 29, 2015. His impact on the world of percussion is monumental and will continue to be as more studies of his works are created. I would also like to acknowledge Dr. Lance Drege for his constant guidance and support throughout my degree. Thank you for providing me with numerous opportunities to succeed and reach my full potential. I would also like to thank Dr. William Wakefield, Dr. Eugene Enrico, Dr. Frank Riddick, and Dr. Susan Caldwell, and Dr. James Shaffer for the time they sacrificed to meet with me and provide invaluable advice. Special acknowledgement goes to Metropolitan Orchestra percussionist, Rob Knopper. To my surprise and delight, Knopper released the first professional recording of Delécluse’s Douze Études and conducted an interview with the composer during my research process. Knopper’s blog and recording (delécluse: douze etudes for snare drum) were much needed and will prove to be invaluable resources for percussionists. Thank you to Alphonse Leduc for allowing me to include excerpts from their following publications: Douze Etudes pour Caisse-Claire By Jacques Delecluse © 1964 by Leduc Methods de Caisse-Claire By
