For many, Evelyn Glennie’s encores are the highlight of her performances. These six exquisite, simple melodies, transcribed and arranged by Evelyn, are ideally suited to the emotional qualities of the marimba and are enjoyed immensely by audiences all over the world.

Evelyn writes: ‘There has always been a place in my repertoire for simple and truly beautiful melodies. The six in this collection are ideally suited to the emotional qualities of the marimba and I frequently perform them as encores. The melodies are known almost universally and always give immense joy to all who experience them – myself included – were in the world I happen to perform them and whatever the occasion’.
