Dance of Words by Aiko Fukushima

With the development of technology, we are now able to communicate in so many ways with anyone in the world. What if we could see all the words dancing in the air?

Marimba players have always fascinated me not only as virtuoso instrumentalists but also as performers who express music with such deep passion and feelings using their whole body, like dancers. I wanted the player to have fun dancing around the piece.

Dance of Words is written to Hiromi Shigeno.
