Program Notes
As I composed the concerto, I envisaged a lone percussionist, center stage, surrounded by three dozen wind instruments. The ideas flowed generously.
The timpani form a timbral home base for the concerto. The character of each movement is determined largely by its featured mallet instrument: in the first, it’s the vibraphone; in the second, the marimba; and in the third, xylophone.
The first movement is savage – wild and relentless. The storm is calmed in the second movement where the rich, deep tones of the concert grand marimba carry on a dialogue with small groupings of woodwind instruments. Despite the quietude, the atmosphere is colored by an underlying edginess. All tensions are dispelled in the spirited, somewhat raucous, finale.[1]
