★ BACKGROUND NOTES ★
Together was commissioned by Marimbafest Australia for the Marimbafest 2022 solo marimba and percussion ensemble competition in July 2022. It was the 2022 Compulsory Work that was performed by the A CLASS Solo Finalists for the 2022 competition, who were Rani Fung (1st Prize, Hong Kong), Jonathan Ye (2nd Prize, USA) and Sebastian Malmquist
(3rd Prize, Sweden).
Together was written with the purpose of this edition of Marimbafest, where participants joined both in-person and online to come together for the common purpose of making music, learning new things and making new friends from around the world. With the 2022 edition welcoming participants from all over Australia, Japan, South Korea, Sweden, Taiwan
and the United States, the Marimbafest family continues to grow and represent percussionists coming together to share their music, uniting together after a difficult time with COVID and the mass lockdowns it brought across the world.

All info about the piece is in the description above! I'm looking forward to put out my next piece straight after this called 'We Are Heroes, Together As One' - you can probably guess what that's based off! And also... I'm GOING TO PASIC so if you're gonna be there let me know in the comments below :))) #TheStudioFamily

[@cecevle]

thank you for always being so inclusive with 4.3 pieces. i only have access to entry level student instruments and you’re compositions are always perfect for them

[@AdamTanPercussion]

Thank you so much Victoria! Yes I'm all about giving people a fair go and 4.3 is the majority of people so why not make more music for everyone 🙂

[@lucas.appleby3422]

Just ordered this piece of music, I’ve never been this exited for a piece of music.

[@ellacriumslop]

The Marimba is the most beautiful sounding instrument in my opinion, and you make it sound just that much better. Keep composing your making masterpieces.

[@hoziie]

One of my friends played this in a masterclass for Tim White and it was so good... And now I'm listening to the composer and wow.

[@Miakoda2021]

Thank you Adam for the music you create after hearing this I have a new appreciation for mallet music.

[@げんき-s8i]

Hi.I’m Japanese.I play percussion too.♡ I'm high school students now. I think this song is very good.Thank you for playing.😍

[@AdamTanPercussion]

Thank you so much for watching! Would love to see you play it too 😊

[@andoryuguen1273]

Really beautiful. I love the climax with the main octave melody with scalur runs in between. I love the way you climax the main melody and chorus of your compositions. I've been learning your sunflower and I might get another one. Great cover!

[@AdamTanPercussion]

Thank you so much! Yes I wanted to make a big octave sandwich for this one 🥪 Hope you're enjoying Sunflower 🌻

[@sammccrowell3218]

[@carlosvasquez5851]

Those two first chords sound familiar. I think I heard them one summer's day, perhaps in June.

[@AdamTanPercussion]

Hahahahaha you spotted the reference 🫣

[@bigpapinoah]

This gave me A Tender Feeling (if you know you know)

[@xxkillerxxops6059]

I love this!! Time to add another solo to my list of solos I want to learn.

[@AdamTanPercussion]

Thank you, you'll do awesome with it 😊

[@willsimon9706]

I heard this and thought legend of Zelda immediately

[@Brandon-jn1lh]

Will this be on any solo and ensemble state lists or do you not even know?

[@AdamTanPercussion]

Won't know for a while but all my pieces usually get added to places like Texas pml etc

[@jorgeenriquelayibanez814]

thank u

[@Glaciace]

Cool!

[@buddylove3640]

Adam are you playing with your new Encore mallets? Beautiful composition!!!

[@AdamTanPercussion]

Yes I am! Excited to see them on shelves soon :)

[@stormlord58]

Beautyfull

[@kttyfl1p]

beautiful piece!!! i'm curious about what's on your outer mallets. is that to protect your skin on your middle finger while playing since it sometimes blisters and tears? that might be something i could look into..

[@AdamTanPercussion]

It's tennis tape :) I usually have it on the inside ones too but didn't have time to wrap those haha. Yeah definitely makes for a more comfy experience 😊

[@cierrabrowning7506]

Is there a release date for the mallets?

[@AdamTanPercussion]

They're basically out now, already showed up on Steve Weiss and will slowly be added to other stores during these next few weeks :)

[@obesepiglet3089]

Hey Adam do you think that you could do a solo tier list but ONLY on difficulty? (No x factor or historical significance)

[@AdamTanPercussion]

That's a good idea, sure thing :) I needa make a new one this year anyway

[@jacobhanekamp2534]

Hey Adam! I love the piece, it's beautiful! I had a quick question to ask you. I'm a 2nd Year College Student majoring in Percussion Performance. When I evaluate my performances, I realized that my laterals/one-handed rolls are my weakest point. I've performed Rain Dance, Yellow After The Rain, Musser B Major Etude, and Nancy. Do you have any solo recommendations that would help me in those areas? I really appreciate it!

[@AdamTanPercussion]

I think the easiest way to build up your laterals is to do exercises that directly target it - for example, doing one handed laterals in 8ths-8th triplets-16ths at increasing tempos (alternating between the three subdivisions) is what I did to build up my one handed roll flexibility. It works because when you do 1H roll you're doing it at a range of speeds not just one continuous one :) Hope that helps!

[@jacobhanekamp2534]

@@AdamTanPercussion Thank you!!!
