		The symmetrical form of this suite, a central movement flanked by toccatas and “cadences”, as well as the suite’s symmetrical key-scheme, reminded me of calling into a great chasm and waiting for the echo to come back.
		In order to create slowly evolving harmonic progressions (a favorite musical device of mine) it was necessary to write intricate patterns for the marimbist to play on this virtually non-sustaining instrument.

		Like the grand duchess who fusses over which jewels to display on special occasions, the Reno Philhamonic's maestro, Barry Jekowsky, fusses only over the symphonic repertory's grandest of jewels for his regular-season concerts at Reno's Pioneer Center.
		What is not a given because it hasn't been heard here before, is Kevin Puts's sumptuous Marimba Concerto written especially for the orchestra's guest artist, marimbist Makoto Nakura.
		Sandwiched between two golden oldies, this fresh upstart of a concerto is staking a claim of its own for a place in the sun as a tried-and-now-true addition to the symphonic repertory.

		A small woman (5 ft. 2 in.), she seemed dwarfed by her instrument—a 6-ft. tablelike frame supporting a graduated series of hardwood strips with a row of tubular resonators attached.
		But when she started to flail away with both wool and rubber-tipped mallets, Marimbist Chenoweth proved herself a virtuoso.
		Scampering from one end of the instrument to the other, she produced flurries of bell-like tones in a surprising dynamic range.

		The 20-minute work was performed by the East Texas Symphony Orchestra led by its Music Director and Conductor Per Brevig, with the soloists Makoto Nakura, an internationally recognized marimbist, and James Sims, principal trumpeter of the East Texas Symphony.
		The real conversation seems to be as much between the composer and his marimbist as between the two soloists.
		While the writing for trumpet is plush and glamorous, at times close to European jazz-influenced compositions like those of Claude Bolling, the challenging marimba part is more often in earnest.

		While not used by every marimbist in the world, it is the most common technique found today.
		It has the ability to play single independent lines, access small and large intervals quickly, one handed rolls, and single alternating passages, all with ease and flexibility once a moderate standard of execution is met.
		He is also the author of the book, "Method Of Movement." This book is HIGHLY recommended and should be studied throughout ones career as a marimbist, no matter how intermediate or advanced the player.

		The music of Bach seems to adapt well to a greater variety of instruments and styles of interpretation than that of any other classical composer.
		Considering the complete Goldberg Variations include a theme (Aria), 30 variations and a concluding Aria, with a total performance time of about 53 minutes, the sheer volume of notes is a major feat in itself.
		Those thousands of notes in a classic harmonic setting are performed with amazing accuracy by young marimbist Pius Cheung."
