The concerto is structured in three movements, each offering a unique perspective on the dialogue between the solo marimba and the string orchestra. The first movement, marked by a lively and intricate exchange, sets the tone for the concerto's exploration of rhythmic vitality and melodic inventiveness. Sejourne's use of polyrhythms and complex meters challenges the soloist while demonstrating the marimba's agility and capacity for lyrical expression.
