‘Tangora’ piece will make
its debut at Lied concert
By Patrick Hambrecht
Senior Reporter
World-renowned marimba player
Makoto Nakura will wield four mal
lets independently, playing complex
songs and counter-songs all at once
for his Lied Center concert Saturday.
Nakura’s “Tangora” will make its
debut at the concert. “Tangora” is a
piece he recently commissioned and
helped write with British composer
Nigel Clarke.
“I asked Nigel to do a song con
nected with the sea, and asked him to
do something about Mediterranean,”
Nakura said. “But he wanted to dc
something Polynesian. Tangora is a
very energetic, primitive god.”
Clarke wrote the piece with both a
distinct southern style, modeled frorr
Polynesian music, and a
“marimbaistic” rather than a
“pianistic” style, Nakura said.
Most composers have little knowl
edge of the marimba, making a piece
written specifically for his instrument
a luxury, Nakura said, so he coached
Clarke on the specific nuances of the
marimba.
“To let the instrument sing i s a very
difficult thing,” Nakura said.
To truly understand the marimba,
he said, “you would probably have to
dedicate your life to it.”
Although the marimba is a com
plex instrument, the simplicity and

easily grasped mechanics of its design
— a series of wooden pipes ranging
from large to small—make it hard to
date. It may have appeared spontane
ously in several parts of the world, or
perhaps spread from somewhere in
Asia.
Nakura began playing the instru
ment at age 8, under a private teacher.
To really master any instrument, a
student needs to learn early on and
develop his ear, he said.
For older students, he said, “it is
difficult to master any instrument, but
if you love your instrument, it’s not
hard.”
But no matter how long a musician
has been playing, Johann Sebastian
Bach always represents a challenge,
Nakura said. In the concert, he will
exhibit his own dazzling mix of com
plex rhythms and flowing harmonies
in his performance of a Bach sonata.
Besides classical music, one of
Nakura’s favorite songs is the Irish
tune “The Last Road of Summer.”
Nakura said he would play a personal
variation of the song as a homage to
Celtic music.
“Some quality of Irish music
touches my heart; I can’t explain,”
Nakura said.
Tickets are on sale for S18 and S14
at the Lied Center, and are half price
for minors and students of UNL, Ne
braska Wesleyan or Doane. The show
will start at 8 p.m.

gan, which is a small, portable
organ, she said.
Faulkner also will play a
harpsichord in the first half of
her program. In addition, Mary
Murrell Faulkner will accom
pany her on Kimball Hall’s
large pipe organ, Kennedy said.
“I think that this music is
easy to listen to,” Kennedy
said. “It’s not unmelodic and
actually quite tuneful.”
Composers featured in her
recital include Henry Purcell,
Heinrich Schutz, and George
Frederick Handel.
The 20th century segment
highlights Randall Thompson,
Samuel Barber, Daniel
Pinkham and Horatio Parker.
“My favorite part of the re
cital process is collaborating
with musicians and experi
menting with what will work as
far as the colors of instruments
and finding appropriate aspects ,
of the music,” Kennedy said.
Sunday’s concert will begin
at 3 p.m., and admission is free.
