About this arrangement

Mallet Sextet (1 glockenspiel, 1 vibraphone, 2-3 marimbas*--(1) 4-octave, (1) low A, (1) low C) - Medium SKU: TA.TSPCE18-013 Composed by Traditional. Arranged by Brian Blume. Percussion Ensembles. Arranged for mallet sextet. Folio & Parts on CD-ROM. Tapspace Publications #TSPCE18-013. Published by Tapspace Publications (TA.TSPCE18-013). Brian Blume's arrangement of Coventry Carol, a traditional English carol based on a biblical play entitled The Pageant of the Shearman and Tailors, is a delicate and haunting treatment of its original. Scored for glockenspiel, vibraphone, and 4 different marimba parts, Mr. Blume does a fantastic job of creating differing textures throughout. He does this by layering in different voices at different times and by using the lowest marimba like a string bass, playing rhythmic figures while the other marimba parts are rolling. Coventry Carol was premiered by the Southeastern university Percussion Ensemble in December 2017. This piece comes as a professionally printed and bound score and includes individual parts in PDF format for printing or for tablet viewing.* If 3 marimbas aren't available, this piece can be performed with 2 marimbas with M1 and M4 sharing a low C instrument.
