Program Notes

A Sacred Vibe was written to provide recognizable but unique arrangements of familiar hymns for 4-mallet solo vibraphone. All arrangements in this book are playable on a 3.0-octave vibraphone. Tenuto marks (-) appear occasionally in these hymns, indicating notes that should be brought out of the texture. Pedaling is notated below the staff and an “x” following a note indicates to mallet dampen that note when striking the next pitch. Below you will find additional performance notes specific to each piece. I hope this collection will help you, and those who listen, enjoy these classic hymns in a new way!
