Description
Concertino for Xylophone and Orchestra by Toshiro Mayuzumi gives one percussionist the rare opportunity to be front and center instead of being buried behind the orchestra, as is the usual case. For this concerto, one skilled performer will play solo xylophone (two mallets) and lead the orchestra through the incredibly entertaining work.
