"Ney Rosauro’s compositional skills simply charm and seduce us. He did it in his immensely popular Marimba Concerto, and now again in his new Vibraphone Concerto . This piece is sure to be a winner with performers and audiences alike world-wide".    (Evelyn Glennie, international artist)
....he enchanted with magic sounds never heard before.

(MAIN POST, Germany)


 

... very impressive was the perfect hand coordination and control of the mallets. ... - A very gratifying concert.

(OSTTIROL ZEITUNG, Austria)
 

... with his solo pieces for Marimba he showed off his artistic expression and virtuosity playing with four and six mallets. .... his Marimba Concerto accompanied by the Cabaza percussion ensemble was especially impressive and the public, consisting mostly of percussionists, left him just after an encore.

(RIM SHOT - Percussion magazine from Germany )

The Concerto for Marimba and Strings by Rosauro showed off not only his abilities as a marimbist but also his skills as a composer and arranger ... the pieces were difficult, but the technical skills displayed by Rosauro, not only made it look easy but enjoyable as well.

(HERALD TIMES,

(PERCUSSIVE NOTES - Percussion magazine from the Percussive Arts Society)

... the Concerto for Marimba and Strings from Ney Rosauro was the highest moment from the concert. The piece itself and Rosauro’s performance won the night and were enthusiastically applauded by the audience, not only for its originality but also for the artistic value of the work itself. The composer created a strong and cohesive work with an increasing development.
