Composer: <\/strong>Gordon Stout<\/p>\n

Title: <\/strong>Skylark Orange Circles<\/p>\n

Category: <\/strong>Marimba Duo<\/p>\n

Instrumentation: <\/strong>Two 5 Octave Marimbas<\/p>\n

Difficulty: <\/strong>Advanced<\/p>\n

Publisher: <\/strong>Keyboard Percussion Publications<\/p>\n

Description: <\/strong><\/p>\n

This work is dedicated to the wonderful Japanese marimba virtuoso, Momoko Kamiya. The music is very dance like in quality, going over and over through mostly the same sequence of harmonies while melodic variations are developed. The melodic ideas become more and more like a bird (or flute) singing as the work progresses. A \u201cskylark\u201d is a bird (lark) that sings as it rises skyward. I sometimes see colors for certain pieces of music, and this music always struck me as having the color of orange associated with it. Therefore, as the music continually dances in a circular and joyful fashion, the \u201cskylark\u201d sings in the orange sky.<\/p>\n
