Light as a Feather

$20.00

(for Vibes and Marimba)
This composition was the winner of the PAS mallet duo composition contest. Considering the dozens and dozens of entries, that is a strong endorsement. It is fairly easy to prepare for intermediate vibes and marimba players, but it comes off to the audience as more than the sum of its parts.

Neptune

$12.00

Rivers of Wood

$19.00$22.00

The Rivers Music School in Boston commissioned this piece for the 22nd Annual Seminar on Contemporary Music for the Young. It was composed with an advanced young player in mind, but is musically sophisticated enough to be performed by college level players also.

Skylark Orange Circles

$33.00$39.00

Duet for two marimbasSkylark Orange Circles is dedicated to the wonderful Japanese marimba virtuoso, Momoko Kamiya. The music is very dance-like in quality, going over and over through mostly the same sequence of harmonies while melodic variations are developed. The melodic ideas become more and more like a bird (or flute) singing as the work progresses.

Suite for Two Marimbas

$12.00

David Steinquest, composer of the now-classic intermediate marimba solo, ‘Meditation and Dance’, has displayed his considerable compositional skills in a marimba duet. In three movements, ‘Jig’, ‘Ballad’, and ‘Country Dance’, the ‘Suite’ is definitely “listener-friendly” and should prove to be a popular addition to the marimba duet repertoire.
