Zeltsman Marimba Festival New Music

ZMF New Music is an initiative to generate 24 intermediate level marimba solos via a Commissioning Project, and Composition Contest. All 24 pieces will be published in two volumes called Intermediate Masterworks for Marimba, and recorded on CD.  

A list of the commissioned composers along with their biographies are available here. Some of the composers contributing to this project are Paul Simon (yes...the Paul Simon), Lyle Mays, and Carla Bley.

You can help broaden the repertoire for marimba by donating to this great project.
