Marimolin’s debut
recording (GM 2023), produced by
Gunther Schuller and Lyle Mays, was named “Classical CD
of the Month” in CD Review with perfect ratings
for performance and sound quality. Now, from
one of the most adventurous groups in contemporary music,
comes Phantasmata.
Phantasmata features eight world premieres from the elite of
today’s contemporary composers, performances that
breathtakingly negotiate every compositional curve, clear
every technical hurdle and reveal more of the seemingly
endless possibilities of this unique violin/marimba
duo. Through grants, commissions and one-of-a-kind
programming and promotion, Marimolin has single-handedly
built the entire existing repertoire for their
instrumentation. In the process, marimbist Nancy
Zeltsman and violinist Sharan Leventhal have also forged
individual reputations at the top of their fields.

soloist on Woodcuts.)
