What are some albums/compositions focused primarily on pitched percussion?
I made a similar thread yesterday and received some good suggestions, but more can never hurt, right?
I'm familiar with
Steve Reich
John Psathas
Keiko Abe
Phonix Reflexion
Makoto Nakura
I also enjoyed Ensemble Percussione Ricerca's performance of In C
Lou Harrison worked with a lot of different tempered percussion but I'm not knowledgeable enough on him to give suggestions. Going to keep an eye in this thread

My album has plenty of chromatic percussion on it such as marimbas and vibes. As well as plenty of actual percussion, and a lot of synthesized instruments, trumpets and saxaphones, pianos, everything...
Track 6 is a short one you might like. Afro Beat influenced. Otherwise youre goonna have to look thru yourself :)
K.R.T. Wasitodiningrat. (A lot of southeast Asian music works)
Vanasse/Vitous. (Vibraphone + upright bass)

Thanks man, I am glad you liked it :)
I don't know what you're into but if you're looking for good solo marimba stuff I would highly recommend Pius Chung and Casey Cangelosi. I wouldn't really bother with albums by them just look up their marimba compositions and arrangements

Philip Glass wrote a Concerto for Two Timpanis.
