Great Wall (Recording)

$2.89
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. (Duration 7:14). Sheet music available.

“Suite for Marimba” was composed in 1950, making it one of the early “classics” of the original marimba repertoire. Consisting of four movements, each depicting a specific incident experienced by Alfred Fissinger while serving as an infantryman in Europe during World War II, “Suite” is the first polyphonic work for unaccompanied marimba. It excels at combining both traditional tertian and quartal/quintal harmonies to evoke introspection, anticipation, panic, and serenity. Sheet music available.

By,

A Salute to George Hamilton Green, featuring Bob Becker on xylophone and Yurika Kimura on marimba. You can’t imagine how fantastic these marimba and xylophone duos sound. The happiness of this highly syncopated music is as infectious as any ever written.”After a fantastic performance by Bob and Yurika at PASIC 2013 where several of these pieces were played, I’m sure ‘Alabama Moon’ is already on the music stands of many ragtime enthusiasts.”-Percussive Notes
