An instantly recognisable piano favourite in a new arrangement for marimba duo by Nick Baron. Following his famous solo vibraphone arrangement of Debussy's classic, Nick rehearsed and recorded this with his Marimba Weddings colleague Mike Rose, before performing it in July 2012. The marimbas lend their well-suited lyrical, sentimental quality to this enchanting and deeply nostalgic composition. See it in live performance: http://youtu.be/1QmGZ7CGDK8
The arrangement will challenge college-level marimbists, and there is room for interpretation; for example long tied notes may be rolled as desired. Your purchase includes score and parts.

Claude Debussy's famous Clair de lune is the third piece of the Suite bergamasque for piano. The Suite, originally composed in 1890 but revised between then and its publication in 1905, is the first real flowering of Debussy's genius for piano music. Its name comes from Verlaine's poem "Clair de lune", which means "moonlight" in French. It is written in 9/8 meter, marked andante très expressif, and to be played mostly pianissimo.
This arrangement for 8 woodwinds, glockenspiel, vibraphone, xylophone and harp (or piano) aims to bring out the dreamy, serene and mildly Impressionistic characteristic of the original work by exploring the vibrant musical colours of this unusual combination of instruments.

Clair de Lune is actually the third and most famous movement of Claude Debussy's Suite Bergamasque. Although Debussy wrote the piece in 1890 at the age of 25, it was not published until 1905.
Although it was written as a piano solo, there have been numerous arrangements of Clair de Lune for other instruments and ensembles. Examples include a version for organ by Dimitri Tiomkin's (in the score for the 1956 film Giant) and for two guitars recorded by Julian Bream and John Williams.

Claude Debussy (1862-1918) was a French composer and pianist. He was experimental in his compositional techniques, favouring dissonance, chromaticism, and the use of non-traditional scales. This hauntingly beautiful piece by Debussy requires subtle tonal control, as rubato pianissimo phrases develop into more definitive anime passages. The calm essence of this piece will test both accurate technique and dynamic control.
