Daniel Levitan- Marimba Suite No. 2
The contrasting four movements of this suite are unified by the use of a formal device in which a short amount of material is repeated four times. In the first movement, the thematic material sets-up a series of variations in blues form. The second movement is a sort of rondo. The third movement is characterized by rapid transformation in which the repeated material serves as a release. In the final movement, the first series of repetitions presents the theme note by note. Can be played on a 4.3 marimba . Marimba Productions. Intermediate.

Leigh Howard Stevens-Rhythmic Caprice
For solo marimba.Advanced. Keyboard Percussion Publications.Perhaps this is the ultimate virtuostic show piece for a solo marimbist. Seven minutes of rhythmic momentum, colored with three "col legno" (with wood) effects: 1) The birch handle is used on the edge of the bar; 2) The mallet head and the handle are used simultaneously (dubbed a "marimshot" by his students); 3) Clusters with the whole length of both handles (dubbed a "Stevens splash" by his students). The very limited melodic and harmonic materials of the piece evolve rhythmically from simple, to complex to polyrhythmic, to driving, to spasmodic, ultimately returning to a simple rhythm in the six measure codetta. A huge concert-closing climax. Three unusual “col legno” (with wood) effects are used in the work. 1) The birch handle is used on the edge of the bar instead of the mallet head 2) The mallet head and the handle are used simultaneously (dubbed a “marimshot” by my students) 3) The whole length of both handles are used to produce a “splash/cluster.” The first section of the piece is all derived from a simple descending modal figure first heard in the right hand after the short introduction. In the middle section the new melodic interest is all in the performer’s left hand, while the right hand accompanies with progressively more complicated tics and splashes. The last section is based on a three-note fragment of the motive from the first section. The very limited melodic and harmonic materials of the piece rhythmically evolve from simple, to complex, to polyrhythmic to driving, to spasmodic, ultimately returning to simple rhythm in the six-measure codetta.

George Tanchev-Scissors
This etude-like work emphases single alternate strokes simultaneously in both hands. The main motif expands into a rhythmically complex yet pleasing melody, characteristic for Mr. Tanchev's unique compositional approach. Influenced by Bulgarian folk music, the motif switches rhythmically between 5/8 and 9/8 time signatures and changing accents, which many times creates the effect of one long phrase crossing over the bar line. This work gives a performer the opportunity to exercise his technique and at the same time to exhibit a sense of rhythm and musicality. "Scissors" makes a great recital or audition work and will add a little spice to any concert. Tanchev Publishing.
