A solo version of my tune Waltz for Tomorrow.
Rusty
I've had the busiest summer in a while I think. But it's starting to wind down. I've travelled for a big chunk of it. This is good and fun and also tiring. Esepcially if you're getting old! <;-)
I first heard this piece, titled Adagio for Strings in the early 1970s. I was so moved by the music that I decided to try to score it out for 2 marimbas and try to play it. My duet partner was Stu Balcomb, who older Berklee students may remember.
We worked it up and got a chance to perform it in concert around 1975. It was in a big hall for a large audience. The marimbas were an excellent choice to capture the beauty and simplicity of the music and our performance was very well received. I will always remember that night as one of the highlights of my musical journey.
Here's a chart of the TOTM "Peace". Really clear, and has all the little details.
