Deb, You See - Claude Debussy's Clair De Lune Reimagined

Piece

For Xylophone and Marimba Quartet

Premiere

March 17, 2023

Composer / Arranger / Performer

Blending the original piece with new elements, adapting to ragtime, and performing multiple times

I wrote this piece between November 2022, and February 2023. I have long enjoyed playing ragtime, specifically arrangements by Nexus legend Bob Becker, and repertoire staples by George Hamilton Green. The piece opens with a marimba chorale, a 1 to 1 translation of the first themes of Clair De Lune, before transitioning into something familiar yet very different.
