String Quartet in G minor, opus 10 - Assez vif et bien rythmé by Claude Debussy Arr. Doug Wallace & Matthew Strauss
For Sale Item
Type of Piece: Marimba Quartet for 4 players on 3 Marimbas (1997)
Instrumentation: 1 5-Octave Marimba, 2 4-Octave Marimbas
Grade: 6
Length: 5 minutes
Package Includes: Score & Parts
Notes: The second movement of Claude Debussy's String Quartet in G minor, Assez vif et bien rythmé, is a scherzo very much influenced by the percussive nature of the Javanese gamelan, especially in its ostinati, or short, repeated musical patterns. This connection with Javanese percussion, coupled with the fact that most of the movement is originally scored for string pizzicato, provides an ideal opportunity to perform the piece on marimbas.
