I want to share what this piece means to me. I found this piece 5 years ago back when I was still in high school looking for marimba duos to play for my last Spring concert. I loved playing the marimba, it was my escape from the stress of school and from my parent’s who fought and argued every night. I would sometimes play during lunch and stayed after school a few times just to get lost with the instrument. My friend and I ended up playing 2+1 by Ivan Trevino for the concert, but this piece was a close second. After I graduated, it became impossible to get on a marimba like I used to since they’re so expensive and I decided to pursue an engineering degree. So instead, I bought a digital piano and made it my outlet to keep playing. I’m 23 years old now, finishing my degree, and while looking through old photos I began finding and binging all the marimba solos and ensembles that I used to listen to and I’m so glad I did. This one specifically transported me back into the drum room where I used to play and it hit me with so much nostalgia. I can’t even describe the feeling I get when I listen to this.. it’s like I reconnected with my younger self. Specially since these past months have been rough and I haven’t been feeling like myself much lately, so it means a lot to me. What I love the most is how the dark, rich, wooden timbre of the marimba mix so well with the bright tones of the vibraphone. I miss these instruments so much. I don’t know how or when, but one day I hope to afford them. Thanks for reading! ❤️
You know what? I am absolutely convinced that you should prioritize the marimba quite high in your life. Your story is wonderful and I have also a strong connection especially to this video. But you have already the skills and urge to get back to playing the marimba. So do it! This is one of these things your friends and family might not understand, but it could turn out to become a really bad life regret, not following your inner voice. Go out there and scout the market. Try to find a used high quality instrument. Whatever. Just do it! This is direct command! Your will never regret making „this mistake“! 😂
I've stumbled into the beautiful section of RUclips again. Been here for hours. This is an incredible arrangement. Excellent camera work. I loved watching her eyes around 2:30.
I remember when I found this a long time ago and I tried finding it again because I thought the concept was just so interesting and the music was enchanting. Found it, and I'm adding this to my playlist. Such a charming duo!
The precision, concentration, and artistry is incomparable. I imagine that even the wood flooring is resonating with these two astonishingly skilled genuises. Mui Bonito!!
I close my eyes while this plays.. tears tell me that as long as people can be this creative, everything will work out - i might not be here, but it will be okay..
Cross grip is a perfectly legitimate grip, especially for vibes. While it's true that most performers either use traditional or Stevens grip for marimba, the performer can use any grip she's comfortable using. With all those doubles in the right hand, I'd say she made a good choice.
Complimenti. Vi ho ascoltato ieri sera dal vivo in piazza Gorizia a Potenza. Bravissimi:::: Esecuzione stupenda. Musica soave. Eccezionali. Bravi:!!!!!!
I like the tonal differences between wood and metal idiophones. You can see the metalsustain verses the woodenlow dynamic, however both of these players are limited by the unidirectional arm (side of the brain hemispheres) tools. Occasionally you see videos of players switching the melodyboard opposite (like riding fakie/switch on a snowboard).
muy bonito el vibrafono pero el orígen de este instrumento es la marimba originaria de Guatemala unos grandes artistas con grandes destrezas mayores a esto
There are different grips that can be used to play four mallets. In this video the performers are using the burton grip. I was taught the stevens grip. There is no right or wrong grip to use, although there is an ongoing debate on which is the best grip to use. It is a personal thing that each has to figure out for themselves.
I have something to admit. Throughout grade-school for music class everyone had to either play an instrument or sing solo/duet/etc for a few songs. I went 4 years without doing either. And here I am watching people play with two mallets per hand... and hear that you can play with even more per hand. WTF. I am so musically illiterate that it isn't funny.
Well if you really want to study music, nothing hold you back. Start by learning about chromatic and diatonic scales, and you will quickly become quite good. (at the condition of working everyday, or nearly).
I was watching videos with David Friedman(the son of Milton Friedman) about libertarianism and I got suggested this video,I thought he also played this instrument but it looks like it was a misunderstanding lmao.
indiscutibilmente bravi ma secondo la mia opinione sono solo tecnici non non sento la passione e il divertimento in quello che fanno quindi solo macchine x far musica la musica stà nel nostro animo e non è solo tecnica ma qualcosa di più profondo Se mi sbaglio accetto commenti differenti x potermi confrontare con chi non la pensa come me
WOW! I was mesmerized the whole time. Such incredible talent...the timing, memory, feel , touch and passion!
Every once in a while I come back to this lovely video, just to get sucked in the mesmerizing playing. This is one of my favorites!

I’m wanting to play 2+1 for my senior concert as well, with this as a second pick AND wanting to pursue an engineering degree.. we’re the same 🫢
@@rcgreen238 No way 😂 Good luck!!

Wow! What a wonderful performance of a interesting piece of music.
These performers nail this. They truly got the composition in their head. Bravissimi
Just one word: Magic!
Nice seeing the Burton grip on the vibes and the marimba :)
Awesome performance!! And the recording quality is the best on RUclips!
Freak'n amazing performance! Awesome piece.
They look so serious. Must take tremendous concentration. Excellent!!!
Thank you for these 10 minutes of pleasure.
2:18 -- did i just get a public service announcement? "The more you know" XD
Great! the best place in the world is the peaceful mind. This song leads me to. thx.
Fantastico, e i due ragazzi molto molto bravi, ricondivido ancora, un saluto
...aerodynamiczna...krystaliczna... słoneczna...Piękna....excellent !
Stunning. I cringe watching this, only reminded of the time when I learned 4 mallets on vibes. My fingers were bleeding in between for weeks!
Ventain Haha.. right?!
Cross grip is a perfectly legitimate grip, especially for vibes. While it's true that most performers either use traditional or Stevens grip for marimba, the performer can use any grip she's comfortable using. With all those doubles in the right hand, I'd say she made a good choice.
I love that sound is different !
Grazie mille!!!...speriamo di poterci incontrare in qualche prossimo live!
Beautiful, Brilliant, Mesmerising.
So beautiful! Must have been a lot of work to practice this piece!
Siete bravissimi !
very nice!
Complimenti. Vi ho ascoltato ieri sera dal vivo in piazza Gorizia a Potenza. Bravissimi:::: Esecuzione stupenda. Musica soave. Eccezionali. Bravi:!!!!!!
Terrific piece and playing.
Thank you very much for correcting me. There are so many things I have to learn about musical instruments.
Fantastic performance!
Beautiful sound
how can you possibly not like this ?
Beautiful.
ottima esecuzione! bravi
Beautiful!
The marimba solo, is ear candy, about to order it and do with a friend, I want to know what mallets they are using though!!
Bells from heaven!
just amazing
Bravissimi ! Avete un bellissimo suono sugli strumenti ed è ottima anche la ripresa audio. Continuate così ! :)
very beautiful
Que hermoso!!!!
Spettacolare!
The marimba is a bit too warm and the vibraphone is a bit too cold, together perfect temperature! so nice
Good beautiful fantastic
Fantastic
Good
Yes
Wow
It' s paradisiac too
OK...WOW! So great!
Ils sont bien en place. J'aime.
K buena composicion!
What's the title of this piece?
"Carousel"?
***** Grazie mille per il tuo commento!...in bocca al lupo per tutto!
@Marco Bianchi. E' un vero piacere ricevere un suo commento!...grazie mille davvero!! Complimenti a Lei per tutte le cose che fa!! GRAZIE !!!
wow try packing a marimba in your suitcase! that thing is bigger than a coffin! lovely to hear marimba with vibes!
@Jim Soloway: David Friedman and Dave Samues are two percussionists. You can buy this song on www.brandtpercussion.com.
Its just beautiful! Wich are these marimba Mallets? (sorry for my english:)
Came in expecting a carnival style puece due to the name “Carosel” but not disappointed
Excellent
Wow! I am stunned by the talent on display here! Just superb. Such a beautiful sound... \m/ (:o)
thanks, i had no idea what it was called :)
Does anyone know if this can be done on a 4.3 octave marimba?
What kind of mallets are being used?
I like the tonal differences between wood and metal idiophones. You can see the metalsustain verses the woodenlow dynamic, however both of these players are limited by the unidirectional arm (side of the brain hemispheres) tools. Occasionally you see videos of players switching the melodyboard opposite (like riding fakie/switch on a snowboard).
is this avail on iTunes? i'm not finding it.
Bravissimi!!!! composizione molto bella,,, ma c'e' dell'improvvisazione? oppure è tutto scritto?
Saluti
so is that how you teach them to hold their mallets, or is the piece have them hold it that way
Can someone tell me what vibe mallets are being used?
Dave Friedmans series
Innovative percussion DF30 vibe mallets
I love xylophone!
Roustam Baimatov That’s vibraphone and marimba. But, I know what you’re saying.
@@shumbum57 Thank you for correcting me. After seven years....
@@craneywatch It's a timeless issue ;-) ruclips.net/user/DrewMTucker
can anyone give me the sheet of this piece?
www.steveweissmusic.com/product/carousel-david-friedman-dave-samuels/mallet-duet
May i ask which vibe mallets did you use?
姚一鸣 they look like they may be from the David Friedman series from Innovative Percussion! Hope this helps
Who are these two and is their music available to buy?
very good
Grazie mille!!!
ROCK ON!
At times, you almost want to reduce the metal vibraphone volume and add compression to the wooden one,so that they could appear more balanced.
magifique
muy bonito el vibrafono pero el orígen de este instrumento es la marimba originaria de Guatemala unos grandes artistas con grandes destrezas mayores a esto
40 gangster rappers didn't like this.
@AntonioNicolaBruno GRAZIE. È tutto scritto.
This is a whole different way of four mallets, than what I was taught

this shit is INCREDIBLE!!!

Give yourself a break. Ninety-five percent of the population doesn't have the curiosity to hear this or recognize the artistry.

Ha, same.
this sounds so much better at 1.25x speed
your music is good, you type kolintang in youtube can see same instrument made from wood
Mellow
you dont really see much of traditional grip
Trad grip is only for snare drum,
kaitlyn kreie there is a traditional 4 mallet grip and both of them are using it.
gamecubehero No, that's Burton. Trad has the outer mallet UNDERNEATH the inside mallet.... Burton's the opposite... Outside mallet on top. : )
+gamecubehero watch more marimba videos. Trad cross is actually still the most common grip in the world :)

Bye-bye. 17 second ads on youtube vids I just don't generally do.
Half of the views on this video are from me
Great performance! Just can't dig the piece though..... Lots of marimba and vibe literature that I like more.
so e mistakes... but good
È più espressivo un clavicembalo.
excelent
