Fantasia (Tuba and Marimba) by Robert Paterson Composer published on 2013-06-12T20:54:13Z Fantasia for Tuba and Marimba (six-mallets) Duration ca. 6' Performers: Dan Peck, tuba; Robert Paterson, marimba Publisher: Bill Holab Music: http://www.billholabmusic.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=103_137&products_id=1292 For more information: https://robertpaterson.com/fantasia PROGRAM NOTE Fantasia is my first piece for marimba and another instrument. Perhaps because it is an older work, I had the urge to improve it. Composers are of two minds regarding revisions: some think that you should never revise, others revise constantly. This piece was moderately playable in its original form, but I took pleasure in tweaking it, being careful to keep as much of my original music as possible in tact. Genre Classical Comment by Liv Nomi very original! like the vibe a d the build up 2021-02-06T10:51:50Z Comment by Dika Chartoff So cool. This sounds like it came out a dark artsy French film :) I love the mimicking effects in the tuba, I wonder if the tuba player appreciated those. 2021-02-06T00:36:20Z Comment by Sabine Alexander Another beautiful piece, Robert.

I have performed with some of the wonderful tuba players of the past, Harvey Phillips, Toby Hanks and Tucker Jolly and I can attest to the fact that they were incredible musicians and wonderful people. Thanks for this nostalgic work. 2021-02-04T22:12:51Z Comment by Adam Richard Tucker Composer I would never have dreamt the=at a tuba and marimba would work so well together. They are the perfect wedding. A great sound. 2021-02-04T16:07:02Z Comment by Jennifer E. Rose Tuba is such an underrated solo instrument. This recording is phenomenal! Love the piece. I'll be sharing this with a few tuba players I know... 2021-01-07T04:07:28Z
