Piazzolla/Satie-Encores arr. Leoson-M

In this compilation I have brought together and arranged pieces, that I many times have played as encores for marimba in my concerts during the years, with shorter beautiful pieces that always had a special place in my heart. The common theme for these three miniature master pieces is that I find them also suiting marvelously for marimba and they span from classical piano pieces over Swedish folk music to popular music. They are not virtuoso in a normal sense but rather musically warm hearted pieces. I hope that they will find their way too many other marimba players as well and that you will enjoy them very much.
