Passacaglia Variations

$8.00

An interesting four-mallet study/concert work that begins with a simple statement of the passacaglia theme in octaves and builds in rhythmic and harmonic complexity to four mallet figuration as it progresses through its variations.

Phantasmagoria

$13.00

Phantasmagoria is a technically demanding marimba piece in one movement. The framework consists of a couple of motifs: objects with variation, sometimes grasping persistently. The conclusion is a question mark. The title could be described as “a constantly changing medley of real or imagined images, as in a dream”. Duration 8-9 min.

Prelude and Fugue in B-flat Major (Bach/arr. Leigh Howard Stevens)

$8.00$9.00

A classic addition to any marimbist’s repertoire. The prelude is a virtuosic showpiece, and the three-voiced fugue highlights the separation of each voice by using different mallet types.
