"You've Got a Friend in Me"
Randy Newman/arr. Alex Stopa
Performed by Quey Percussion Duo (Gene Koshinski and Tim Broscious)
Released in 1995, the Pixar film Toy Story is set in a world where toys come to life. Scored by Randy Newman, it was Pixar’s first feature film and the first fully computer animated feature-length movie.
“You’ve Got a Friend in Me” is the film’s signature song, and it describes the close bond between a young boy Andy and his favorite toy, an old-fashioned pull-string cowboy doll named Woody. It was nominated for Best Original Song at the Academy Awards and Golden Globes and has since been certified double platinum.
This arrangement is written for two performers, sharing one 5-octave marimba, and was commissioned by Quey Percussion Duo. The piece may also be performed on a low F (4.5-octave).

Filmed at the Please Touch Museum in Philadelphia, PA
Video: Ben Hausman
Audio Capture/Editing: Gene Koshinski
Audio Mixing: Alex Stopa
