thanks for the enthusiastic kind words! I watched a real white squirrel in Brooklyn in a park one afternoon and came home and wrote the piece. I was working on a chick corea transcription at the time of his children's songs which affected the harmonies. and yeah, the motion of squirrels is just so crazy cool, it really got into my auditory imagination!!
Thanks Mike! it is a really fun piece to play. out of all the music I've written over the years for the marimba, this is one of the pieces that I have always kept in my pocket to play anytime, because it really takes me into another world when I'm in it
Stunning marimba playing, love how much this evokes a squirrel.... you must be the best Marimba player... in the WORLD!

This is so fun and playful. I love your dampening technique.
