"Resonance10" by Joshua Albert is an exploratory work for a single 5.0 Octave Marimba and single Vibraphone(Or Optional Instruments). Inspired heavily by Steve Reich and Phillip Glass, Resonance10 aims to provide a beautiful, full featured, pseudo minimalist work, that can fit on a couple of instruments that most programs have. That is to say there is no harm in playing the piece on more than one marimba. The vibraphone player acts as a conductor while six players share sections behind and in front of the marimba. The work is easy enough to put together in a short time and perform in any environment. The "10" in the title refers to the harmonic series in which a marimba is tuned to, utilized in the piece to maximize the resonance of the instrument.

XY Recommends this piece for High School to College level percussionists.

Duration: ~6:00

Memento was written by Calvin Chiu for Hong Kong Percussionist Sophia Woo

The piece, “Memento” for Vibraphone and 5.0 Octave Marimba, is inspired by the movie bearing the same name. The main character in the movie, Leonard, suffers from a rare form of memory loss; in order to find the person who murdered his wife, he uses a delicate system of tattoos and Polaroid photographs to retain information which he is unable to recall. I was particularly fascinated by the idea of retrieving information from the past by utilizing these small “motifs”, which almost serves as the sparks or reflection along his path of vengeance. Throughout this piece, the audience will hear an obsessive appearance of the “motif”, serving as flashback to the buried, unbearable memories of the past.

XYPublication recommends this piece for Young College to Graduate Level Percussionists

“Ito Guruma” for marimba duet by Calvin Chiu, is an intriguing work that explores the possibilities of the instrument while maintaining an expressive musical character. Inspired by the manufacturing process of artisan “Ai Indigo” denim, “Ito Guruma” is the Japanese term of a spinning wheel that is being used for weaving after the yarn is dyed in Ai Inidigo. I am inspired by the deep thought and dedication behind the process of creating these beautiful handmade products. “Ito Guruma” was commissioned by and dedicated to the Gip Percussion Ensemble in Hong Kong, with funds by the Hong Kong Arts Development Council.
