Marimba Solo - Digital Download SKU: A0.499204 By Pat Metheny. By Pat Metheny. Arranged by Gregory Beyer. Folk,Jazz,Standards. Individual part. 9 pages. Published by Gregory Beyer (A0.499204). This is a 5.0 marimba arrangement of Pat Metheny's solo baritone guitar rendition of Last Train Home as recorded on the album, One Quiet Night. It is transposed up a minor third (to the key of Ab major from F major) in order to accommodate the lowest notes of the baritone guitar (A1) on the 5.0 marimba (C2). Perhaps someday someone will make a 5.3 octave version of this in Metheny's original key. During the pandemic, I have deliberately chosen to take a deeper look at some of the music that moves me deeply. When I was a kid my next neighbor, Bob Holt, happened to be the local college music professor. He introduced me to a lot of wonderful music, including Pat Metheny’s album “Still Life Talking,� which features the song, “Last Train Home.� In 2003, Metheny released a solo baritone guitar album, “One Quiet Night,� on which “Last Train Home� makes a re-appearance. I’ve always thought that this version of the tune would make a great marimba project.

Marimba Solo - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1310693 Composed by Michael M. Chang. 21st Century,Contemporary. Individual part. 10 pages. Michael M. Chang #899669. Published by Michael M. Chang (A0.1310693). Crossing the River is written for an intermediate to advanced player using four mallets on a 4.3 marimba with optional 5-octave notes indicated in parentheses ( ). The song's meaning can be found in our everyday lives - how things can become mundane and sometimes events beyond our control can overwhelm us. During those times, our thoughts may drift back to our youth and to the simple things that brought us joy. Remembering these may bring a moment of contentment, but making those moments a part of our lives again can lead to a lifetime of happiness.The music begins in the key of E Major, with playful, lyrical phrases before modulating to a section in F# Major, which consists of a light, airy right-hand melody accompanied by a syncopated left-hand ostinato. The flow pauses for a moment of introspection, before a similar syncopated section returns, but this time in the key of A# minor. This builds to a beautiful chorale section as the river is crossed, before closing with a variation on the opening theme in C# Major. Singable and pleasing to the ear, the piece's melodies may help improve dexterity, particularly in the player's right hand.
