well the Kraft suites use mainly snare drum tom types of instruments. Im not exactly sure of the instrumentation but I think the French suite uses 1 deep snare drum (with snares on and off for different movements) 1 medium snare drum 1 piccolo or thin snare drum then 2 different sized toms and 2 sus. cymbals. Some of the movements use 4 mallets. But mostly it is just snare sticks
The English suite uses 1 bass drum 1 deep snare 1 med. snare 1 thin (piccolo) snare and some other drums
They're performed so much because they have such simple instrumentation. If you're a college student all of the equipment should be pretty readily available.
Another multi percussion solo, I would reccomend is Zivkovic's Generally spoken it is nothing but rhythm heres the instrumentation Vibraphone 3 Cymbals, 17,15.13 inch. 13 inch is lying on the top of the 15 Inch Cymbal, 2 China Gongs (opera gongs), 2 Almglocken TUNED in d# and f#, 2 Woodblocks, Bamboo chimes Bongos, 3 Tom-toms (12,14,15 inch)
Just a thought Scott
