Bodine-A Cross on Wood-M OS

A Cross On Wood by G. Bradley Bodine was commissioned and premiered by Drew Lang. This energetic and rhythmic piece makes use of contemporary marimba techniques such as displaced octaves, fast scale passages and polyrhythms. A Cross On Wood requires a 4.5 octave marimba however the lowest note written is a low G in a passage that could be easily reworked for a 4.3 octave marimba.
