    Bravo! This violin sonata(#3)is one of the most difficult sonata that I couldn’t manage very well, so I gave up when I was in school long time ago. But it stays with me and regret why I didn’t try harder . Luckily my son who plays bass (amateur) arrange it beautifully himself and played for me. I was very impressed and happy that I could hear it again. Shame on me.!

      @@BlancodrumsIf you could do the arrangement of Scriabin Etude, surely you could Chopin Etude! I have suggested once before that I would love you to do “Chaconne “. Your answer to that is that there are so many musicians have done it already. I am sure that is true but the reason for my request is that I just love the color of tone that you create.

      @@marimatsumoto372 Thank you so much for appreciating my interpretations, but unfortunately, my time is limited, and I have to prioritize. My goal is mainly to create arrangements that expand the marimba repertoire, rather than focusing on interpreting canonical works for the instrument. Also, the technical demands of Scriabin's Etude and Chopin's Etude are quite different. The marimba's polyphonic limitations don't allow for a proper rendition of the Chopin Etude you mentioned.

    This instrument tortures the player because of its size. Isn't it possible to build half size marimba with the same sound outcome. I believe it's possible. The width and the length of the keys are quite big here. I believe it's possible to reduce the size significantly and get the same outcome. Pablo, what is your opinion about that?

    • @Blancodrums
      @Blancodrums 9 місяців тому

      Thank you for sharing your thoughts. While I don't have the physical-acoustic knowledge to confirm if it's possible to build a smaller marimba with the same sound outcome, I have my doubts. Marimbas with narrower bars tend to sound considerably worse. Additionally, marimba players have adapted their technique to the standard dimensions of concert marimbas. I believe that reducing the size of the intervals would be more inconvenient than advantageous. Thank you for commenting!

    I am writing to you again because when I find a different piece every day that you play moves me. I was a violinist in a orchestra in the U.S. for a long years (longer than I would like to remember.)Anyway, we played this piece many times at a concerts, but never once I was moved by the piece.

      Thank you so much for appreciating my Spanish music arrangement and my interpretation of Bach. I'm delighted to hear that you enjoyed them! Yes, indeed, I am Spanish. I already have plans to play more Bach in the future, although probably not the Chaconne. While it's a piece I love, my channel tends to focus on works that are less standardized for the marimba. As an arranger, my goal is to expand the instrument's repertoire. There are already many excellent recordings of the Chaconne by great marimba players, so with the limited time we all have, I prefer to prioritize other pieces. Once again, thank you very much for your comment! 😊
