Fitch-Sweet East (S)-M

Sweet East by Steve Fitch is a four mallet solo written for 4.3 octave marimba. This tranquil piece is based completely on the pentatonic scale. It could also be called a "black key etude" as well, as nearly all the notes are on accidental bars. This piece requires reading in odd meters, one hand octaves, and a variety of permutations.
