Michael Burritt is Professor of Percussion and head of the department at the Eastman School of Music.

Tuscany was commissioned by and written for pax duo in collaboration with Middleton High School. Much of the duo is scored in canon and creates a cascading musical effect between the two marimbas. The final section arrives with a powerful rhythmic and harmonic foundation in marimba 2 with marimba 1 scored in searing melodic lines over the top, concluding with a reflection to the earlier canonic material in the coda.

Tuscany was inspired by my trip to Cortona Italy during the summer of 2023. I was taken with majesty the natural beauty of this special place in the world.
