As the book says, I’m trying to make it sound chant like, though also using time and dynamics to make it interesting. However, I’m not sure if I’m going too crazy with timing or not...I think it sounds alright! Comments and criticisms please!!!

Be the first person to record this little etude I arranged for solo vibraphone and I'll paypal you 150 BUCKS!
The Etude is based on the traditional spiritual song "Great Is Thy Faithfulness" and will be beautiful when you perform it at your church. Your performance must be expressive, played well, nicely recorded (home recording is fine) and posted here. $50.00 goes to the second vibraphonist and 25.00 to the third. GO!
NOTE: You gotta play the piece well.
This past June/July, I composed a piece inspired by the weeks I spent volunteering at a place called Quarantine Island/Kamau Taurua, on the South Island of New Zealand off the Otago Peninsula. The piece tells of the island's history as a quarantine station (and the Maori injustices that accompany colonization) and my experience living there, volunteering, meeting community members, and hanging out with the Island Keeper and his two wonderful kids.
