Description:
Jacob Druckman's Reflection on the Nature of Water has become one of the standard 4-mallet marimba solos in the contemporary marimba literature. This master class, written by the person it was composed for, Dan Druckman, the composer's son - Associate Principal Percussionist of the New York Philharmonic - provides a unique insight into the complexities of this monumental work. This analysis of Reflections includes: - Exploration of the sonic, timbral, and expressive possibilities of the marimba in a unique way - A hands-on, specific, nuts and bolts approach to understanding and performing the piece - Applications of mallet choices, strokes, articulation, and phrasing-to have as wide a sonic palette as possible Correction of mistakes in the score (mostly accidentals or rhythmic errors)
