This work for 4.3 marimba is a medium-easy to medium-difficult, tonal, 4-mallet solo in which technical difficulties like fast interval changes are avoided.

Four meditations for solo percussion.

"This intriguing new work for solo percussion uses a variety of timbrew and rhythmic counterpoint to create a distinct and memorable musical experience."
-Percussive Notes

Written for the Index 4 Percussion Quartet after a trip to Anghor Vat in 1998.

The 1st-place winner in the 1998 PAS composition contest for solo marimba.

This is an exciting composition for vibraphone- one that would make an excellent choice for a senior recital. The piece may be played in its entirety, but the composer also gives recommended combinations of movements to be played if the performer chooses.

Compared to the rather plentiful Baroque repertoire, not much 19th century music has been transcribed for marimba Kaiser's transcriptions of four Caprices by the renowned cellist and composer, Alfredo Piatti, (1822-1901) are a contribution to the repertoire that will be equally pleasing to marimbists and to their listeners.

A major new multiple percussion piece requiring a fairly large but not horrendously enormous set-up (10 tom toms, cymbals, tam tams + a few small instruments), 'Florida Arclab' demonstrates the virtuosity and musicality of the performer in a way matched by only a handful of other multiple percussion solos. Not for the fainthearted!

A dramatic portrayal of an incident from the legend of Jason and the Argonauts, Symplegades is a highly effective composition. The use of different striking areas of the timpani, as well as of various sticks and mallets, extends the timbral colors of the instrument. Requires power, control, subtlety and finesse!

Composed for and premiered by noted marimbist Katarzyna Mycka, "Hurricane's Eye" is a challenging and dramatic solo work that should find its way into the standard repertoire for advancing students and professionals.
