There are SEVERAL instances where Keiko was given only a couple days notice to play brand new concertos that she had never seen before. She would get the music, get onto a plane, read through the piece and visualize herself playing it, show up to the concert right off the plane, and play it flawlessly. THAT is the sign of a true genius

Ruth is an amazing mallet player, and is great at what she does. I mean she sight-read St. Alphonzo's Pancake Breakfast almost perfectly after not seeing it for 30 years.
But Keiko's stuff tends to be much more technically-complicated, and considering how difficult it is, she should have no problem attempting one of Ruth's solos.
They play completely different styles. Ruth rarely picks up 4 mallets, when Keiko can play easily with 6.
Keiko wins, no contest.

What a great feeling is for me as a Guatemalan to hear this beautiful concerto, written by another guatemalan such as Maestro Sarmientos, and played wonderfully by Keiko Abe, simply beautiful!!!!!!
-
she has problems with dynamics. there are only 4 instances in this piece where fff is indicated, but she seems to overdo it. i guess she is old and needs to hear it better. otherwise, flawless!
-
Damn i wish the quality was better because this is soooo impressive!
-
Who is the publisher and where can I get the score?
-
my god I love this woman!

Another example of Keiko Abe just being ridiculous and amazing!
-
It's too bad the sound quality doesn't support the lower register. The marimba is so beautifully resonant.
-
maybe one of the most undervalued concertos for marimba! i'd like to listen to other recordings, maybe with a better audio quality
