I know Mr. Moersch has a lot of experience with this, but I am interested in having a piece (not very long) written for my senior recital May 2005. I am wondering if anyone has some contacts of people they would reccomend for writing a marimba or percussion piece. Thanks for any helpful info.

The easiest place to start is with fellow composition majors or faculty at your school. There are a lot of great pieces out there that exist for little more than cost of a good dinner or a bottle of wine.

Choose a composer whose music you already know and like. Start on an entry level, since that is probably what your finances are.

Good luck!
