Marimba Solo - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.910948 By Seal. By Henry Olusegun Adeola Samuel. Arranged by Nick Baron. Contemporary,Pop. Individual part. 8 pages. Nick Baron #5982567. Published by Nick Baron (A0.910948). One of the most beautiful pop songs of the Nineties, if not all time, Seal's 'Kiss From A Rose' is a favourite for millions worldwide. This arrangement has been performed at concerts and weddings by it's creator, Nick Baron, in his own marimba duo, and it is now here on sale for the first time.Seal's masterpiece is poignant, elegant and soulful; these characteristics shared by the marimba with its soft attack and warm resonance make it a perfect fit.The arrangement follows the form of Seal's original but there is creativity in the marimba writing; for example the way a groove is often created between the ostinato rhythms of the two marimbas to suggest the presence of a rhythm section. Both parts are for four mallets and it is written in the key of C#. This arrangement would be an excellent addition to a conservatoire-level concert programme. Requirements: two players, four mallets each, two 4.3 octave marimbas.
