The master marimba composer (Preludes, Grand Fantasy, etc.) has written a massive sounding, very difficult tonal solo piece. Toccata Fantasy is full of great tunes, exciting chromatic key changes and clever textures.

An unusually lyrical work with a minimalistic influence. Based on Irish folk themes, “Tune for Mary O.” is a fine recital work that uses a blend of lateral sticking techniques to create melodic and accompanimental patterns.

In Twilight, Brostrom focuses on basic ideas of chords and color transformation. An example of this occurs in the opening phrase as chords are passed off from duo to duo. “Twilight” is defined as “the light from the sky between full night and sunrise or between sunset and full night” or simply as “an intermediate state that is not clearly defined.” (Intermediate to Advanced)Duration 6:00.

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.

This virtuosic work commences very much in the spirit of the introduction to Franz Liszt’s Mephisto Waltz No. 1, exhibiting a boisterous sensibility that is buttressed by substantial technical demands.

Plenty of musical challenges await the player in the guise of an intermediate level work. Six variations follow the theme. The variety of textures makes this work a great study piece as well as a delight for the audience.

The metrical and stylistic treatment Chen gives this traditional Chinese melody is sure to captivate any audience. Independent rolls and great overall coordination required. Can be played on a 4.6 octave instrument.

A beautiful to berserk theme and variations, Variations is a large scale work in four sections that has advanced technical challenges, but is within the reach of a good four mallet player. Lyrical use of the one-handed roll in octaves for a principal melody.

It’s called the “Well-Tempered Marimbist”, because each of the pieces is in a different key, like Bach’s “Well-Tempered Clavier”. Each piece was written with specific musical and technical challenges in mind.

This 5.0-octave marimba solo, while not full of Stout’s customary intricacies and technical challenges, is intensely poetic and passionate – a performance challenge in and of itself. The nature of the piece is that of a lullaby. With a quarter-note pulse that is woven throughout, the music has a lilting and rocking quality.

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 Stout’s most beautiful compositions.
