AFRICIAN MARIMBA BOOKS
Pieces in these books are arranged for seven diatonic marimbas in the keys of C, G, and their relative modes and can be played on any of the Shona style marimbas that have taken this country by storm. I learned the pieces from various teachers at festivals and in workshops. In addition to the Zimbabwean-style marimba groups, school and college marimba ensembles, especially those with Orff instruments, will find the pieces interesting, challenging, and appropriate. The pieces are written in standard music notation and have (usually) seven parts.
