A marvelous new work! Masque is in 6 movements with programmatic titles (Frog Song, The Clown, Black and White), and is somewhat more tonal and traditionally structured than Tanabe’s Recollections of the Inland Sea. Masque offers ample opportunity for the serious marimbist to display technical mastery and musical maturity, while at the same time thoroughly engaging any audience. The Buffalo News called Masque “delightfully descriptive” and “most appealing.”
