The eighth edition of Zeltsman Marimba Festival, Inc. will be held in Appleton, Wisconsin, co-sponsored by Lawrence University, ZMF’s biennial home. The marimba seminar will be attended by nearly 60 marimbists and percussionists from around the world.
A series of eight concerts—open to the public—will feature this year’s renowned faculty, special guests (including jazz pianist Lyle Mays), and emerging marimba stars. They’ll perform music ranging from classical and contemporary to jazz, in solo and chamber music settings.
ZMF 2009 will be a landmark event in marimba history. 24 new solo marimba pieces—the fruits of a three-year project called ZMF New Music—will be unveiled by this year’s faculty. 16 of these works were written by some of the most esteemed composers of our time, and eight are the winners of an international composition contest.
