CARBON WHITE
2016 | SOLO MARIMBA
PROGRAM NOTE
Carbon White for solo marimba was written in 2017, with revisions made in 2021. The piece explores a short motive that was in my mind in the summer of 2016, before I arrived at the University of Iowa. I struggled to find a place where this melody could thrive and eventually found it’s place on the solo marimba. The structure explores this melody through register and tonal modulations – while creating contrast and context with a second theme that appears in the middle of the piece. My intensions were to write a work that represented something my parents could enjoy listening to
Dedicated to percussionist, Christopher Wilson.
