Am I at a good place?

Hi everyone. Rising junior music ed major here. I just finished Katamiya by Sejourne for my spring sophomore juries and it looks like I’m going to be taking on Rotation 2 by Eric Sammut next.

My question is if that is an acceptable difficulty for a junior in college. I’m trying to gauge where I’m at as far as my playing ability looking towards senior year/potentially grad school. Thank you!

Hi everyone! I’ve just finished my sophomore year as a music education major, and I need to start looking into some solo rep for next year.

I didn’t get really into marimba until getting to college since I switched to percussion my sophomore year of high school, so I’d like some good recommendations for more marimba literature.

So far, I’ve played several of the solos out of the Davila book, among some other things, but I most recently just finished Katamiya by Emmanuel Sejourne with great success. I’ve looked into xylophone rags (Green) and vibraphone (David Friedman book) as well.

Thank you all!
