Review

This very challenging work written in 1940, one of the few concerti written for marimba, is now available in print. Its duration is approximately 15 minutes. The orchestral parts are available on rental from the publisher. The work is in three movements, with the first and third movements offering fine technical two mallet work, and the second movement containing excellent lyric writing for four mallets. The piano accompaniment. being a reduction of the orchestral score, will require an accomplished accompanist to handle its rhythmic and chordal difficulties. - PAS Staff, October 1963 [1]
