Best-known as a member of the alternative rock band The National, Bryce Dessner is also a composer in his own right. This sheet music is for his work Tromp Miniature For Marimba And Crotales . Originally commissioned by the  International Tromp Percussion Competition 2014, the work was a compulsory performance piece for the semi-finals of the competition, for competitors to really showcase their skills. Lasting around 5 minutes, the piece predictably presents a challenge for players, but is a thrilling work with an exciting climax. With the sheet music for the Tromp Miniature, you are able to play this composition precisely as Dessner  intended it.
