Hello everyone,
I spent the past week after the TROMP 2026 Next Gen. Mallet Competition compiling a list of all the repertoire performed by the competitors, along with some of my thoughts on it.
If you’re interested, it’s now available on my website’s blog!
Heartland Marimba's new recording of Sculpture 3, featuring Chandler Beaugrand, Matthew Coley, and Sophia Lo.
Hey everyone,
I am excited to announce a new consortium with Daisy Waters to bring a set of 3 chorales based on literature to the marimba!
About the Work
Literary Chorale Triptych is a new work for solo marimba built from three short, contrasting chorales. Each movement draws on a different science fiction novel and explores a distinct emotional and sonic landscape.
Much the Same Way that Bricks Don't - Ominous, foreboding, procedural
Flowers from Cephalus and Diamonds from Neptune - Romantic, galactic, archaic
He Had Twenty Years to Think About It - Pensive, retrospective, dreamlike
