Marimbasonic: each
Composer: Halt Markus

MARIMBASONIC is a piece for every ardent marimbist, and indeed for all interested in percussive art. The title is explosive, and the piece is a challenging musical tour de force, requiring great bravado from the soloist. MARIMBASONIC is a valuable addition to the marirnba repertoire, which I am sure will give great pleasure to performers and listeners alike. - Evelyn Glennie London, February 1992 There aren't many pieces in the marimba repertoire in which the composer succeeds in including such a wide range of techniques and tonal possibilities; such is the case with Markus Halt's MARIMBASONIC. By distributing complimentary rhythms equally for both hands almost throughout, the instrument is brought to full sound capacity. The student will gain much technical knowledge, in particular when it comes to the distribution of fast unisonic passages onto the two inner mallets, or even onto all four. This sparkling, effective and popular composition is a firm part of my repertoire and is also available on CD (Bayer Records 160 006). Nebojsa Jovan Zivkovic Boblingen, February 1992"
