Traditional Mexican Melodies by Israel Moreno & Arthur Lipner

17 Songs in lead sheet format for marimba and all instruments.

“For years I’ve been searching for lead sheets of Mexican music. I’m thrilled to share this fantastic collection with the world! Israel and I have included examples of how to play the basic grooves with bass and chords (see below). The music is so idiomatic for marimba – and so fun to play!

Play these pieces solo, with a band, or make arrangements for your own ensemble.  Enjoy the wonderful traditions of Mexican marimba music!”   
Arthur Lipner

“Traditional Mexican Melodies” helps fill a void in the availability of traditional Mexican music for marimba.  A big step forward…clear accurate notation, chord symbols, chord voicings for various songs… Kudos to Israel Moreno & Arthur Lipner!”
