Hi I'm looking to order some marimba solos, I've currently worked on Rain Dance, Yellow after the Rain, and Aeolian Fantasy in percussion course Studio I. I have a 4 1/3 (low A) octave marimba (5 at the school) however the music i would like to purchase would be more of me working on my 4 1/3 octave marimba.
