Duo for Marimba and Piano was composed in 1988 and was premiered that year at the North Carolina Composers' Symposium in Winston-Salem, North Carolina by Eric LeCain and the composer. A very early piece in Ms Sandresky's oeuvre, the piece has a distinctly minimalist feel that reflects her influences of the time. The piece was revised in 1992 to include an optional video component so that half of the duo was prerecorded and presented with the TV monitor in front of the piano where the soloist would normally be. This version was premiered at the Southeastern Center for Contemporary Art on a concert of Ms. Sandresky's compositions. It has since had the life it was originally intended, as a bravura concert piece for marimba and piano and has been performed in Australia and Poland, as well as the US.
