Percussion Quartet #2

$38.00

Quartet for four percussionists.Aside from the 5.0-octave marimba, this piece uses instruments that would be found in most music departments, making it ideal for a smaller studio of advanced percussion stduents or a newly formed professional chamber ensemble.- Jason Baker, Percussive Notes

Centipede was the first substantial work written by Christopher Swist, composer of the critically praised Streamline. In Centipede, Swist explores the key of F# minor in a quasi-improvistory style, inviting the more confident player to feel free to expand upon the written ideas. However, the piece works beautifully, as written, and is excellent for the development of mallet control.

Skylark Orange Circles

Price range: $35.00 through $39.00
By

Duet for two marimbasSkylark Orange Circles is dedicated to the wonderful Japanese marimba virtuoso, Momoko Kamiya. The music is very dance-like in quality, going over and over through mostly the same sequence of harmonies while melodic variations are developed. The melodic ideas become more and more like a bird (or flute) singing as the work progresses.
