- This arrangement of Harold Arlen's 'Over the Rainbow' from 'The Wizard of Oz' was created with the intention of having a combination of jazz influences (harmonies and quasi improvisation) and classical romantic influences (runs, ornaments, and flourishes), yet maintaining the simplicity of the melody and harmony of the original song.
The original song was first recorded in 1938 by Judy Garland. It was then made famous from the release of the film, 'The Wizard of Oz', in 1939.
This arrangement received its world premiere performance by the arranger himself in December 2013 at St. Josef Kirche, Mannheim-Lindenhof, Germany.
The music is published by Tapspace Publications and is available at www.tapspace.co....

I keep coming back to this piece. It truly moved me. Never will forget the time you helped me with some performance notes.
Its almost as if this is not just a song, but a dance too. both are very elegant
Thank you for this - it is a beautiful arrangement that makes me miss my own practice of years gone by.
Thank you for listening and for your kind words, Kristy Howell!
very good video shot! Very professional
Very nice Rob
Thanks, Bradley Gill!
Wonderful!
I noticed the marimba was Kolberg because of the arrangement of the instruments at the back
Anyone know the mallets he is using and the different hardnesses of them? I really wanna get a hold of whatever they are
kolberg marimba
?
Yes it is!! It's a custom white frame/gold resonator 5-octave "Avantgarde" marimba. www.kolberg.com/products/en_GB/901/product/8015.html
Indeed
I see you using Kolberg mallets in the video (or so it seems) but they're kinda out of my budget. Is there anything more affordable you recommend?
I think the Vic Firth m123, m124, and m125 would sound like the mallets he is using
