In Mainstream Mallets, Jason Hammond-Wood has compiled over 20 short, 2-mallet solos with optional piano accompaniment to challenge more experienced middle school students while offering high school percussionists more performance opportunities. All selections are familiar tunes, including classical favorites such as The Nutcracker, Sleeping Beauty, Anitra's Dance (from Peer Gynt), and The Barber of Seville. Also included are nonclassical melodies like The Stars and Stripes Forever, The Entertainer, and On Wisconsin (the university's fight song). All pieces are playable on xylophone, vibraphone, or marimba, and two of the solos are adapted to be performed as duets!

ISBN 9790080148976. UPC: 888680895532. 10.25x14.25x0.178 inches. Peter Eotvos.
The meaning of da capo is to return to the beginning and start again. A musical process, which reaches somewhere but does not end, beginning again and again in a different way, from different basic material throughout nine stages, evolves from the starting tune. The initial tunes come from Mozart's notebooks. They are fragments, ideas for themes, which in their majority or not in the outlined form did not result in finished compositions. Peter Eotvos presents these tunes to listeners in a clearly recognisable way but he immediately develops and transforms them. Mozart's themes are almost immediately remodelled in the chamber ensemble, the instruments of which were still unknown in the 18th century, and the musical journey is made especially adventurous in that the solo (whether played on the cimbalom or the marimba) is presented by a musical instrument which cannot have been used in the 18th century.

The work was composed in winter 2013-2014 at the invitation of Porto's Casa da Musica, the Salzburg Internationale Stiftung Mozarteum and New World Symphony, America's Orchestral Academy (Miami). The cimbalom solo was inspired by the performance of Hungarian cimbalom player Miklós Lukács.

We recommend this volume to those who would like to play the melodic instruments (tubular bells, marimba, vibraphone, xylophone) that are gaining an increasingly important role in the rapidly developing teaching of percussion instruments. Starting from the first steps, familiarization with the notes, it provides varied, colourful musical material sufficient for several years, including not only folk melodies of different nations but also works by many important composers (Beethoven, J.C.F. Fischer, Handel, Kodaly, Lully, Leopold and Wolfgang Mozart, Praetorius, Purcell and Schubert). Together with duets and pieces with piano accompaniment, which are particularly suitable for concert performance, exercises to develop skill in score reading are included in the teaching material, in the compilation of which the author drew on several decades of teaching experience. The textual instructions are provided in three languages: German, English and Hungarian.
