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.

Trees

$20.00

This is a very interesting and satisfying work for marimba and piano which was originally written for marimba and strings. The development of the musical material is beautifully controlled and the marimba part is challenging but completely idiomatic.

Warrior from the Deep

$40.00

One vibraphone, three players, six movements, 15 minutes … I must admit this didn’t seem enticing at first; however Jonathan Kolm creates some very nice moments by utilizing various performance techniques. The selected techniques create wonderful changes in timbre and definitely provide a much-needed contrast for the ear of the listener.
