Gymnopedie no. 1

Composer: Satie, Erik , Arranged By: Casella, Jim

Price: £14.00

Instrumentation: Vibraphone
Number of mallets: 4
Difficulty: Intermediate
Gymnopedie is a vibraphone arrangement of one of Satie's most treasured works for piano. The arrangement adheres to the original rather closely, although the key has been changed from D to F to better accommodate the range of a standard vibraphone. It's also a deceptively tricky study in mallet dampening and requires sensitivity and precision in order to bring out the melody with clear presence over the harmony.
