Anthem: To Catch a Glimpse, for 5.0 marimba, is dedicated to the beautiful music and playing of Nancy Zeltsman, and influenced by the marimba music of Dan Levitan.

The Other Side (of Silence) is a beautiful new composition for 5.0 marimba. It winds its way through a variety of sections in different styles, moods and textures, but always returns to a place of happiness and joy!

Morphic Resonance is a difficult work for solo 5.0 marimba. As it morphs through many different styles and sections it will challenge the most advanced marimbist, while providing a rewarding musical experience.

This marimba part to this version is exactly the same as the original for solo marimba (2010). There are now additional string parts (two violins, viola, and cello) to accompany this solo. An even more beautiful version of one of my most beautiful compositions.

My very first composition employing vibes in a solo context. This duo is for EASTHAMA, the mallet duo consisting of Lindsey Eastham and Hiromu Nagahama, who were winners of the Duo Category at the last Southern California International Marimba Compeition in 2013.

Manhattan Escapades was written in 2012 for two marimbas, both requiring a 5.0 instrument. Premiered at Ithaca College in 2014 with Gordon Stout and Kate Burns (Vorel).

Tailoring for Two was written for my student Taylor Katanick, and premiered by Taylor and myself in 2014 at Ithaca College. A really fun duo, requiring two 5.0 marimbas.

Outgoing 2 for large percussion ensemble, is an orchestration of the original version of Outgoing. A very exciting composition, with lots of groove, intensity, and fun sections. Highly recommended for the advanced college percussion ensemble.

Uninhabited Admittance is a many faceted composition for solo 5.0 marimba. It is lyrical, jazzy, rhythmically varied, and a great deal of fun to play. Highly recommend for the advanced marimba recital.

With a good advanced level high school marimbist and percussion ensemble, this should be a very programmable work that audiences will find interesting and accessible.

Four Faces is scored for 5.0 marimba soloist, four percussionists, and electric bass. Rhythmically extremely interesting, and not at all like any other music for marimba solo and percussion quartet. Check it out!

Outgoing (original version 2011) is scored for piano, marimba (5.0), timpani and two percussionists, and is approximately 9'30" in length. In instrumentation only, I had in mind the Sonata for Two Pianists and Two Percussionists by Bartok. The marimba part is the second piano part. There is a highly chromatic timpani part as in the Sonata. The percussion parts are really in effect a drum set part split into two parts, one playing the drums and one playing cymbals, thus completing the similarity in instrumentation to the Bartok Sonata. This is a broad and expansive work, encompassing a number of different styles of music and expressive capabilities of the exciting chamber group.

Somewhere in Africa Theres's a Whirlwind was composed in 2010 for two five octave marimbas. This is an exciting and virtuosic work, written for Marco Schirripa and Sean Gill, who gave the premiere performance and recorded it on Stout's most recent CD Welcome to Stoutland (www.gordonstout.net). The "whirlwind" portion of the title refers to the fast passage work in the marimba one part. The "Africa" portion of the title refers to the rhythm of the marimba two part, which is in large part based on the African double bell pattern. This work requires mature performers who posses excellent technique and advanced ensemble skills.

Afternoon Footprints was written for solo marimba (5.0) in 2014. One of Stout's most recent compositions for solo marimba, it is approximately 7'40" in length. It was composed with the thought of watching someone walk around the streets of Paris, going through different neighborhoods and viewing some of the many and varied sites that make up the beautiful city of Paris. Highly suitable for the advanced marimba recital, this work will be appreciated by non marimbists, the general public, as well as marimbists who want a work that concentrates on musical virtuosity.

Cerulean Landscape was written for solo marimba (5.0) in 2013 for Japanese marimbist Kana Omori. It is a moderately difficult work of 5'40" in length, in a freely composed style and form, progressing through various beautiful and lyrical landscapes. This is an excellent work to showcase the versatility and expressiveness of your musicality, and is highly recommend for a college level recital.

Instrumentation: marimba 5.0, soprano saxophone, violin, classical guitar, acoustic bass and percussion (small hand drum).
