Book NowAbout Marimba Artist Manuel Leuenberger
Marimba Mirage – Sounds in Motion is a solo music show by Swiss marimba artist Manuel Leuenberger at Alba Theatre during Edinburgh Festival Fringe 2025. Leuenberger blends rhythm, melody and movement into a mesmerising performance featuring his own compositions, cloned friends, rolling blackouts and whirring mallets. The marimba is described as probably the biggest xylophone you have ever seen. From delicate whispers to thunderous waves, the show transforms the wooden bars of the marimba into a dynamic soundscape. It runs 60 minutes, is suitable for ages 5 and over, and tickets are £16.
Why see this show?
A solo marimba performance built around the artist's own compositions — the instrument's range from delicate whispers to thunderous waves, combined with movement and multimedia, makes this a genuinely uncommon concert experience.
