30 Min.; 3 Sätze, 4 Schl., geschr. für She-e Wu; schwer

(Also available for string quartet and for Wind Ensemble. Solo and piano reduction for sale, score and parts for rental only.) Juilliard composition and theory faculty member Eric Ewazen (composer of Northern Lights) has written what many consider to be “The Great American Marimba Concerto”. Only time will tell if these appraisals are correct, but everyone who hears it agrees that it is a work of great beauty and excitement. Written for She-e Wu, the concerto has already been performed by her in New York, Taiwan and Paris. In three movements.
