Hasenpflug-All Hallow's Eve-M

All Hallow's Eve by Thom Hasenpflug was begun on a grey October 31st (hence the title). The piece begins with a barrage of motivic information and contrasting themes, each represented by a fiendish Halloween monster! The themes are then developed and allowed to interact with one another, and it is the performer's task to seek continuity for the work as a whole within its sharp contrasts. This four mallet solo is scored for 4.5 octave (low F) marimba.
