Marimba Solo - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1460201 By Jake Shimabukuro. By Jake Shimabukuro. Arranged by Isaac Romer. Rock. Individual part. 9 pages. Isaac Romer #1039135. Published by Isaac Romer (A0.1460201). Dragon was originally inspired by the Chinese-American actor Bruce Lee, and hisfilm: “Enter The Dragon.” As I arranged this piece, I was captivated by thesong's story as it builds from sparse beginnings into a busy roar of commotion. Iarranged this piece intending to mimic various aspects of the physical layout ofthe ukulele. From rapid 32nd notes that mimic fast strumming to the grace notepatterns and chord structures mimicking the layout of ukulele strings from top tobottom. I also wanted this piece to take advantage of the full range and sound ofthe marimba, so I added an introductory chorale section and several other tweaksthat make this piece not only an ode to the beautiful ukulele sound but also acelebration of marimba in combination with live electronic effects.
