Emergence - for solo marimba

"Emergence (2020) is an original etude for marimba by Steven Hewitt. The etude explores a short rhythmic pattern and the harmonic development thereof. This piece is written in honor of his former composition instructor, Curtis T. Stotlar." - Steven Hewitt
Since I began performing video game music on Twitch, I've gotten to meet a wonderful intersection of musicians from both the game music world and the contemporary percussion world. My first encounters with Steven were in my Twitch chat, and I actually didn't know he was a composer until he approached me with this piece! I'm always excited to see composers writing new works for percussion, and I'm happy he engaged me to record this work.
Instrument: Adams Robert Van Sice Artist Series 5-octave marimba
Mallets: Vic Firth m113, two m114s, and a m115. I play Vic Firth sticks and mallets.

Great performance Doug!

I always love hearing those wider intervals (4ths/5ths maybe?) with the warmth of the marimba. This is really wonderful, Doug!!

Beautiful and I'd love to play it sometime, is there somewhere I could get the music for this?

[@DrumUltimA]

I don't believe sheet music is for sale, but you can contact the composer by emailing steven.hewitt.music at gmail dot com!

Are you open to recording other works? I've uploaded some percussion / front ensemble pieces and I actually made an arrangement of Delecluse 1 for solo marimba that I'd love to see read / performed :0
