=== Review ===
"Exit 39" is a percussion quartet scored for the following: First percussion--vibes, timbales, small suspended cymbal; Second percussion --marimba, chimes, orchestra bells, bongos, metal wind chimes; Third percussion--chimes (shared with player 2), two high tom-toms, triangle, bass drum, medium suspended cymbal, large tam tam; Fourth percussion--four timpani, two low concert tom-toms, temple blocks, mark tree. In its single-movement, three-part structure, each performer functions both as an integral ensemble member and as a quasi-soloist, with the timpanist opening the work in a rhapsodic fashion. Later, there is dialogue between the mallet-keyboard percussionists and the timpanist (with player 3 functioning with the timpani). A middle, slow section heralds the final portion of this nine-minute work, which shifts from the opening 4/4 rhythms to a very fast 6/8 section--reminiscent of Fisher Tull's ending to his "Sonatina." Although the tonality is G major, there are numerous departures from that tonal center, and Mancini's masterful clarity in compositional concept creates a single movement full of contrast and sophistication. This work is suitable for a mature college percussion quartet, and would also be suitable for a professional symphony percussion quartet.
