Johan
n Sebastian Bach
(1685-1750) is widely
regarded as one of the
greatest composers of the
Baroque era of Western
classical music. His
music, full of rich
harmonic language and
melodic genius, has
endured the course of
time and has been
transcribed and arranged
for all types of
instruments and
instrumental
combinations. His music
translates well on the
marimba and is frequently
used for recital and
audition repertoire. The
music in this collection
includes many of Bach's
best-known works
transcribed for the
marimba and carefully
selected for the
developing mallet player.
This collection can also
serve as a useful
resource for the advanced
player looking for
sight-reading material or
repertoire to perform at
special events,
ceremonies, or
receptions. Each work is
presented in versions for
both two and four-mallet
techniques for marimba
players with different
ability levels. The works
can be performed
individually or together
in a group. Includes:
Jesu, Joy of Man's
Desiring · O Sacred
Head, Now Wounded ·
Sheep May Safely Graze
· Gavotte ·
Badinerie and Minuet from
Orchestral Suite No. 2
· Bourreé · and
more.
Patrick Sébastien
