This energetic piece gives marimbists the opportunity to show off their octaves, as they permeate the wild and sometimes “raucous” texture. There are also plenty of opportunities to exercise musical expression, especially during the chorale.

“Others will have difficulty matching the quality of this keyboard duo arrangement of a George Gershwin hit. Bob Becker’s xylophone interpretation maintains the integrity of the original melody, yet masterfully includes material that will allow the performer to demonstrate glimpses of virtuosity.”-Percussive Notes

This single-movement programmatic work for solo marimba is a depiction of “the daily activities in the precarious life of the kudu”, a type of antelope which dwells on the plains of Africa. From serene rubatos to panicked obligatos and running ostinatos, this piece promises adventure.

A short, yet solemn work. This piece offers a perfect opportunity for the player to experiment with tone color and rubato while showing-off the resonance of the instrument.

One of Raymond Helble’s many compositional talents is the ability to imitate the style of almost any famous composer. Not only is this set of variations a great way to study the performance style of these composers, the set is also a delightful and slightly humorous treat for the audience. The compositional “slight of hand” is totally convincing.
