Nancy
Zeltsman:
Woodcuts |
 Known
for her pathbreaking work in Marimolin, Nancy Zeltsman
presents her debut solo release.
This recording, featuring compositions
from Astor Piazzolla to Michael Hedges to Suzanne Vega,
demonstrates why Nancy Zeltsman has been a powerful force
in the expansion of repertoire for the marimba.
(Also hear Nancy Zeltsman in Marimolin’s
GM Recordings, Marimolin
and Phantasmata, and on Godfrey,
Schwartz, Frank: Music for Strings & Mallet
Percussion.) |
“The
marimba is a particularly difficult instrument to master
and Zeltsman has clearly done so.” —American
Record Guide |
