Description

This percussion ensemble arrangement of The Miraculous Mandarin is based upon three movements of Bartok's original work.

The Beginning - A challenging display of technique, timbral variety, and creative orchestration.
The Second Seduction - Featuring the vibraphones, this movement creates a rubato, tense beauty.
The Chase - A relentless conclusion which drives to the ultimate point of release.
