Program Notes

Review

"SilentVibration" is a short multiple-percussion solo for vibraphone, five temple blocks, crash cymbal, sizzle cymbal, ride cymbal and swish cymbal, written by one of the premier percussionists of Europe, Siegfried Fink. The piece alternates between the tempos of quarter note = 60 and quarter note = 120 with a short recitative section in the middle. Four mallets are needed to execute the various instruments; however, it does not require advanced four-mallet technique. Four notes (G-flat, A-flat, B flat and D-flat) are to be muffled on the vibes throughout the composition, and in one section only note stems are written for the vibes, perhaps indicating that specific pitches are not as important as their direction. This 96-measure composition is well written, and Professor Fink puts a great deal of imagination into creating many sounds from the few instruments he uses. This multiple-percussion solo would be perfect for a recital, studio class demonstration, or a jury. This short piece is big on results. - John Beck, October 2001
