A bright 3/4 tune in C, easier to play than most of Piper’s Seven Songs. Spot would make an excellent jury piece for the developing vibraphonist.

The arrangement Bob Becker made for NEXUS which has caught the attention of audiences and percussionists around the world and created a whole new fascination with the xylophone as a solo instrument. The accompaniments require four players performing on a minimum of two marimbas.

Unmistakably Sweet Sammut. If you know the Rotations or Cameleon, Stroboscope is similarly “French” in its style and harmony, but a smidge easier than Rotations 1 and 3.

“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

Tailoring for Two was written for my student Taylor Katanick, and premiered by Taylor and Gordon Stout in 2014 at Ithaca College. A really fun duo, requiring two 5.0 marimbas.

This work for four concert toms will challenge a percussionist’s rhythmic accuracy and expressive capabilities. The more I study this piece, the more fascinated I become with it. It is engimatic in that this lyrical, sorrowful music (as can be deduced from the title) must be expressed through rather unconventional instrumentation. Clearly, the performer must internalize the music to the point where he or she is capable of making four tom-toms sing in a manner in which the emotional content of the music is unquestionable to the listener. -Jason Baker, Percussive Notes

The Blue Flame Quintet was written for the Lassiter High School Percussion Ensemble in 2005 and premiered at the Midwest International Band and Orchestra Convention in Chicago. The quintet is scored for solo marimba (5 octave), and four accompanying multiple percussionists.”The work is roughly six minutes in duration and is sure to be a crowd pleaser. From a student ensemble perspective, it might be one of the most accessible of Burritt’s “marimba plus ensmeble” compositions.”-Percussive News
