Watch The Melting Glaciers - Duet For Marimba And Piano

Watch the Melting Glaciers is an intermediate level composition for two-mallet marimba and piano. It utilizes the polyrhythm of four over three, which is also found in the speech cadence of the title itself. Delineated in seven sections, Glaciers is a programmatic composition loosely constructed around the subject of global warming. Built on a major/minor tonality, it has a sound that is both accessible and contemporary. The element of improvisation is employed in one section, and improvisational suggestions are offered in the performance notes. This piece comes with a full, bound score and includes a CD-ROM containing a video of the piece being performed, an audio recording for reference, and both the solo and accompaniment parts available for printing. Check out Gary Fieldman's brand new CD (released 2016), Grasp the Swallow's Tail, which features Watch the Melting Glaciers.
