I searched "Clocks in Motion" because I wanted to watch a clip about Einstein's theory of special relativity. Ended up here, happily. Subbed, this music is beautiful.

Marimba 3: The designated driver of the ensemble.

[@paulgering7703]

Brad Williams The most important part. She has all the bass notes. And the only 5-octave.

[@saintsaens21]

@@paulgering7703 Especially most important from 4:23 to 6:22

[@asampleofsam845]

@@spookiedukey I agree having better tires on a car does help the car drive.

[@zacharylafosse5594]

A perfect example of how even the simplest parts in a piece can make a difference: at 3:07 when the marimba 3 part enters with the low end eighth notes is probably my favorite part and every other time when she does that. Gives me goosebumps

[@trashpanda8297]

well its not just her, the entire ensemble changes as well at the same time she comes in to create that effect

[@YdaissRodriguez]

😊

[@joannen3470]

Pretty fantastic. The section from 3:00 to 4:00 is particularly lovely. An impressive piece and an impressive performance.

[@Nels_Smells]

I played this piece with four good friends my senior year of high school. Such a good piece. It’s a tricky piece, I won’t lie, but it’s so good

[@PurtiPrincssPrducton]

I saw you guys perform this live tonight, and it was beautiful. Still is here.

[@ClocksInMotion]

+Sarah Thanks Sarah! So glad you liked it!

I love the switch to 5/8 😍😍

[@IanFox]

i've come back to this video countless times, something about it just leaves me captivated

[@iandrum87]

Incredible piece and flawless execution. The dynamic changes are on point

[@austinlackey6040]

marimba 3 is when you go to play with your older friends and your mom tells you to take your younger sibling with you

[@SilverWolf340]

yeah im not sure why that part got written the way it did, in my experience it just made the person stuck on that part sad

[@CB-ve3st]

To this day, my favorite example of how stacked rhythms even repeatedly can produce amazing sounds and small changes can set a tone

[@Giovanoctem]

I closed my eyes and I traveled, listening to pulsations and grains of time, harmonic sequences in a controlled fall. Thank you for this beautiful music.

ha get a load a this nerd jk bro i love this kind of music and by extension anyone who listens to it

[@owenriley2062]

While I understand that every part is important and you shouldn't feel bad for a playing a part that is objectively easier, I still would hate to be that poor girl on marimba 3 back there.

[@eddythegoat1261]

She had the coolest part tho

[@majesticrice3830]

She was the one who was creating the balance between everyone

[@thetraveler1230]

She probably is the most important person though. She accents the notes and provides the metronome. I'm sure no matter how hard they tried, they would mess up at least once without her part. I understand the feeling though. I've been that person multiple times.

[@zebzaman2247]

Now I on the other hand would be thankful to be her , hehe. I should sure mess up the other ones!

[@MrAndrewCardwell]

@@thetraveler1230 I played this piece with an ensemble a few years back and that third marimba part is so important, but it’s also repetitive enough that it’s easy to get lost in the music if it’s not entirely memorized.

[@ajstimson]

Wow! A fantastic piece and a mesmerizing performance!

[@ClocksInMotion]

Thanks Andrew! It is a very fun piece to play. Glad you enjoyed the performance!

[@paulraynoha7735]

Thank you, Clocks and God bless Marc for his gift to us.

[@martinreid1510]

I'd be the one in the back with the eighth notes.

[@ARMProducts1120]

There are two versions of this piece, one of the way they're playing it with the third marimba. And the second version is just two vibs and marimbas. If you choose to buy it, then you get both versions no matter what!

[@spookiedukey]

Antonio Morra what’s the difference between them? Harmony just split differently?

[@ARMProducts1120]

Swampfire after watching this version and Marc Mellon’s version(he plays with the 4player part) there is no difference in terms of different rhythms for each part. The bass marimba is added for timing and consistency.

[@zoelcard3416]

Martin Reid honestly same

[@paulgering7703]

Actually, the one in the back has the most important part, I think. She’s got the 5-octave with all the bass notes.

[@Phantompain7]

The part of my brain where Phillip Glass and Tubular bells lives is on fire . You are amazing , thank you !

[@dirpguygaming9198]

Yeah

[@turbogamer8868]

[@FeonaLeeJones]

Really quite beautiful~ glad I found your percussion piece. Writing for percussion is something that has been challenging for me as everything sound good and I want to have a smorgas board of sound to work with. I like that you limit yourself to marimbas and vibes and develop your piece using limited instrumentation. Well done :)

[@Philomats]

Very talented and enjoyable.

How do you learn a 10-minute piece by heart?

[@thekingoface8338]

Haha try doing 1hour+ long concerts by heart, 10 minutes seems easy after a while! Lots and lots of practice.

[@MyANIMATIONSTUDIOMC]

Marching bands learn 15 minute performances, with visuals, positions on the field, dynamics, and all, by heart. It's mainly muscle memory, just play the piece over and over, and look at your music less and less, until you have it down.

+Beverly Flens Thanks! Gravity is one of our favorites!

[@Gorenghal]

Really liking the tones starting around 3:15.

[@k_y_l_3]

My favorite nuance is the theme from 5:20-6:18ish where the feel is 6/8, and the shift at like 6:21 where the marimba octave theme shifts from 6/8 to 3/4. edit: In a live performance (or with nice speakers) the bass marimba comes in the second measure, and really underlines the shift
