Music in the Park

Sticks and Stones Percussion-Stephen Stone will entertain us with a solo act on a marimba, which is made up of wooden bars that are resonated by tubes beneath them, producing a warm and rich tone. Sticks and Stone will bring us on a fun journey, taking you through a little of every style of music via the marimba (“the piano of the jungle”). Enjoy upbeat, danceable, melodic music from rich, earth-tone, marimba warmth. Expect to hear music you recognize from an instrument you don’t normally hear… and also to be challenged with the unfamiliar. www.sticksandstonepercussion.com
