Hello. I hope you will pardon this poll of the list concerning availability of bass marimbas. Andrew Stiller's Instrumentation book lists them as extremely rare and normal ones with extensions down to A (from the normal c) as 25%.
But in the years since he wrote the book, my impression is that normal marimbas with extensions down to A or even all the way down to C have become more common. And even that the lowest octave on such marimbas is detachable. Can anyone confirm or deny? Thanks, Robert _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
