Akadinda Trio
Composer: Sejourne, Emmanuel
Number of Players: 3Instrumentation: 3 players on 1 marimba
Number of mallets: 2
Difficulty: Intermediate/Advanced
Inspired by the percussive mallet music of Uganda, each player in this unique piece uses 2 mallets, and all three players play on one 5-octave marimba. Numerous melo-rhythmic lines interlock to form an interesting polyrhythmic (3:2, etc.) groove. No one part is particularly difficult, yet concentration is required so as to realize the interlocking rhythmic patterns in a fashion that seems relaxed, yet grooves!
