Hey Justin -

If your looking into doing some contemporary marimba for your recital, I would recommend checking out some of the modern Japanese repertoire from the late '60's/early '70's. I would recommend purchasing the Ongaku book "Marimba Pieces Vol. 1 " and selecting something out of there. The book contains Miki Time, Ikebe Monovalence I and my personal favorite Sueyoshi Mirage.

If your not into the whole Japanese marimba thing, i would recommend one of the Moersch commissions like Reflections on the Nature of Water or Merlin. I also recommend Schwantner Velocities if your up for it.

Best of luck with your recital planning, i am doing my Junior Recital at Ithaca College this April. Feel free to check out my Top 10 Favorite Marimba pieces post for some more suggestions.

Sincerely, Lon Stetz
