    Beautiful piece for a marimbist. We purchased this piece for our son for his state competition. It is a serene piece that makes you think you are relaxing in the rain.

    I received my order within 3 days and it was exactly what we needed. I always order my music from Steve Weiss Music and have been highly satisfied.

    Good for High school and beginning four mallets

    Comments:

    This was my first solo with four mallets, and now my students are using it for competitions. Very tuneful and easy on the ears of musicians and non-musicians alike (so much percussion music sounds harsh to the uninitiated). I highly recommend all of Mitchell Peters' marimba solos to beginner/intermediate level percussion students and their instructors.

    Couldn't Find Anywhere Else!

    Thank you for having great percussion music available! It seems local music stores don't keep a lot of percussion music in stock, and you have all the great resources available, like this solo!
