I Will See You Again

I Will See You Again was first conceived as an improvised solo in memory of my brother-in-law. Over time, the piece has evolved and become more of a structured composition but without losing the improvisatory/lamenting feel which was originally intended.

Program Notes

I Will See You Again was originally premiered in Mexico in 2008 during the 8th International Marimba Festival in Chiapas, Mexico. The piece was first conceived as an improvised solo in memory of my brother in law Albert “Butchi” Medina. During my tour in Mexico in 2008, I was informed that he had passed away so in my next concert I decided to improvise something in his memory. Over time, the piece has evolved and become more of a structured composition but without losing the improvisatory/lamenting feel which was originally intended.
