Vessels of Song contains five suites of klezmer melodies in versions for mallet percussion ensemble and marimba duo. These virtuosic, joyful, and historically significant arrangements will be an excellent addition to any solo or ensemble percussion concert. The book’s introduction and guide to performance practice details the use of klezmer’s percussion instruments and its significant artists as this musical culture made its way, via immigration, from eastern Europe to North America in the early twentieth century. Vessels of Song also illuminates klezmer percussion’s influence in the symphony orchestra and in early American popular music.
