Until Dawn - Marimba Solo (4.3 Octave Version) By Arnor Chu

This edition of Until Dawn, adapted for players who might only have access to a 4.3-octave instrument, is slightly abridged compared to the original (2019). There are fewer difficult reaches, and thus it requires less stamina to perform; however, one can easily move between this version and the original without having to re-learn much of the piece. Although this version is abridged, I'm performing it much slower here than in my original recording — I always encourage players to come up with their own interpretation of the music.

About the piece:
Until Dawn is the first composition for 5-octave marimba that I’ve written and was the winner of the 2019 Percussive Arts Society International Composition Contest. For me, the piece is a departure from my previous works, which I consider as side projects and never serious. I have no formal education in composition, so entering a composition competition marks the end of music as a hobby, and the ‘dawn’ of studying music seriously going into my first year of university.
