Poor Little Butterfly is a Fly Gal Now (Jerome & Spencer/arr. Yurika Kimura)

$21.00 – $24.00
By

M. K. Jerome’s Poor Butterfly Is A Fly Gal Now was published by Waterson, Berlin & Snyder Co. in 1919, and recorded the same year by the All Star Trio (Victor 18641-B). The All Star Trio was one of the most popular recording groups for dance music in the United States between 1918 and 1922. The ensemble included Victor Arden on piano, F. Wheeler Wadsworth on tenor saxophone, and George Hamilton Green on xylophone. This transcription arrangement bases the marimba part on the piano and saxophone performances, while keeping the xylophone part almost exactly as played by Green, with only a few minor changes to make the two parts consistent.

Swanee (Gershwin/arr. Becker/Kimura)

$21.00 – $24.00

“Others will have difficulty matching the quality of this keyboard duo arrangement of a George Gershwin hit. Bob Becker’s xylophone interpretation maintains the integrity of the original melody, yet masterfully includes material that will allow the performer to demonstrate glimpses of virtuosity.”-Percussive Notes

Yellow Dog Blues (W.C. Handy/arr. Yurika Kimura)

$21.00 – $24.00
By

“Green’s unique bluesy style is evident in this fun, challenging xylophone solo. The marimba accompaniment is equally challenging (if not more so) and requires a player who is comfortable with large leaps in the bass line while playing busy syncopated patterns in the right hand.”-Percussive Notes

Great Wall

$14.00 – $17.00
By

This piece is a 6 minute wall of sound coming from the marimba – all apparently sounding like rolls, but many patterns are really “quasi-rolls” or repeated figurations that sustain the sound of the marimba with a rhythmic drive.

Azure

$21.00 – $24.00

A more discursive, lyrical and introspective Burritt style is developed in this piece. As is always the case with the music of Michael Burritt, the marimba writing is first-rate, idiomatic, fun to play and makes the marimba sound great.

Marimba music doesn’t get much heavier than the second half of this set. Even the light and simple movements such as Soldier’s March and Wild Rider have a certain Germanic seriousness.
