These are beautiful arrangements appropriate for Masters recitals, Bachelors recitals or solo concert settings. These are advanced 4-Mallet arrangements of some standards and not-so standards in the literature.

Suggested stickings and performance notes are included .
Right/Left hands are divided between clefs. They are all playable on a 4.3 octave instrument.

They are also available on Ebay.

"Brilliant seller! GREAT music! Communication and speed: Perfect! A+++++"

"Great item AA++++ thanks"

"Nice Transcription"



"Jesu, Joy Of Man's Desiring" - J.S. Bach

A terrific all-occasion, accessible piece that everyone knows. The left-hand bass line drives the right hand chords and chorale melody.

"Clair De Lune" - Debussy

A romantic journey through Debussy's sometimes delicate, sometimes passionate textures.

This one is a challenge.



"Solace" (A Mexican Serenade) - Scott Joplin

An intelligent crowd pleaser, Solace starts with a tango-like "A" section which gives way to a more forceful "B" section and a long lyrical middle section that was used in the film "The Sting".

"Bethena" (A Concert Waltz) - Scott Joplin

Not in the typical ragtime form, Bethena's relaxed melody winds it's way through many complex ragtime situations and with it's minor mid-section is a joy to play throughout.

"Polka" (From The Golden Age Ballet) - Shostakovich

Jazzy, humorous, rhythmic, bombastic, sweet,...the Polka has it all. Musically challenging, this could be a very effective closer.



"Tarentella" (Op. 102 No. 3) - Mendelssohn

Mendelssohn's beauty comes through in this subtle and fast 6/8 dance movement.



Coming Soon

"Pineapple Rag" - Scott Joplin
