Garner-Gray Fox Rag, The (SP)-X/2-4M - Product Information
Gray Fox Rag adds Ryan Garner's own flavor to the genre of ragtime. However; like the gray fox itself, the piece is not what it seems. The piece explores some odd phrases of seven bars as well as a total of five different tonic areas, much more than the ragtime standard of two. This piece also begins and concludes in a minor key which is also unusual for its ragtime counterparts. Just like the piece, a gray fox is also not what it seems like either. He boasts a mostly red coat of fur despite its name suggesting otherwise. Seeing the similarities of the two, the composer decided to name one contradiction after the other: the Gray Fox Rag. This piece can be performed one two 5 octave marimbas, one 5 octave and one 4.3 octave marimba, or two 4.3 octave marimbas.
