Name: The Rabbit on the Mountian by Nicholas Bennett
Duration: 5 min 7 s
Description: A rabbit hops around near the mountain. The song tries to express the excitement of a rabbit throughout. It slowly grows more complex as the rabbit decides to climb a little up the mountain and venture out.

This is an interesting concept and I like the interplay between the blocks of instruments.

I think you capture the title perfectly. A little still then  frantic activity.

Lyrics:

Lion-hearted kids
Ripping cigarettes
On a rooftop in the city

Hanging with out legs
Dangling off the edge
Just happy that you're with me

You don't know how much I love you
But you mean the world to me

And I'm feeling awful paranoid
Getting ready to say

What's your plans for the future, man?
I don't think that I'm gonna stay

Tried to hide that look upon your face
We're glad you're trying a change

I said let's save it for another day,
Tonight we drink goodbye away

You don't know how much I love you
But you mean the world to me x 2

The World

This is a song about parents, teachers, work mangers and leaders all messing with your head and making you feel inferior when they have got no more of a clue than you'll ever have; so feck it and go with your gut, so long as it isn't hurting anyone :) That's what I say anyway. I've had a lot of practice and experience; but still, what the hell do I know eh? :)

PROGRAM NOTE
Fantasia is my first piece for marimba and another instrument. Perhaps because it is an older work, I had the urge to improve it. Composers are of two minds regarding revisions: some think that you should never revise, others revise constantly. This piece was moderately playable in its original form, but I took pleasure in tweaking it, being careful to keep as much of my original music as possible in tact.
