MARIMBA EXTENDED 



As a contemporary solo percussion instrument the marimba continues to attract the attention of both performers and composers. Next to the existing repertoire, Tatiana Koleva has commissioned a number of compositions specially written for her and her projects and ensembles. Most of the pieces use her new performing technique of "marimba extended" developed during the intense collaboration with the composers, using other percussion instruments, sound tracks and her voice.
Based on that conception in 2004 Tatiana released her first solo CD "Knock on Wood" on the NovaLinia records, followed by the premiere of the multimedia program "Rituals & Confessions" in 2006.
2008 marks the premiere of the new acoustical solo program "Hollandse Slag!"
