The Road to You

My arrangement of a delicate Pat Metheny ballad is now published and available from Bachovich Music Publications. It’s arranged for solo vibraphone and completely written out – so for all you non-improvisers, never fear. Contact Bachovich Music for details on ordering: Bachovich

Here is a description of the piece:

The arrangement follows a typical A-B-A form with A being the clear statement of the melody. Although this is a completely written-out arrangement, the B section takes on the archetypal improvisatory portion of the work. One of the challenges the performer must overcome is to sustain a chord while highlighting the melody using advanced dampening techniques. But you will find that the vibraphone’s mellow nature is exceptional for illustrating this work.
