Performance Notes
The player playing the first marimba part should pay attention to the mallets they are using (depending on the instrument and room) in that, it shouldn’t be extremely soft due to the high registers written towards the beginning of the piece.It is highly advised that the setup of the piece should be in some form of a ‘V’ shape, having the second marimba part on stage left.
