Description

Popular Songs for Marimba by Michael Grossmann contains 11 etudes in different keys, and popular musical styles. Despite the pedagogical orientation of the pieces, they are also effective concert pieces, leaving space for improvisation and the elements that can be extended with rhythm instruments. On the enclosed CD you will find all the pieces to listen as well as the exercises and some percussion accompaniments as play-alongs. All in all, the book promises so much fun for both 4 mallet beginners and advanced players.
