Description
Chad Heiny’s Chemical Songs is a welcome addition to the solo keyboard repertoire for young players. This collection is comprised of eight engaging two-mallet solos. Each solo in the collection will fit on a standard size marimba, vibraphone, xylophone, and some even on a glockenspiel. If performing all eight solos, instrumentation can be customized to help bring character and nuance out of each solo. Written for easy-to-medium skill levels, these solos also come with optional audio accompaniment tracks (created by Evan Brown) that underscore the title and thematic material of each piece
