Tyson-Vertical River-V/M - Product Information

Vertical River by Blake Tyson is written for Vibraphone and Marimba duet. It was inspired by Tyson's rafting adventure with John Parks on the Boise River. This piece depicts the beauty, excitement, and occasional feeling of losing control that they experienced in the raft that day. Can be played on a 4.3 octave marimba.

"I wrote this piece on a commission from John Parks. The piece is a reflection of the great times that John and I had a few years ago rafting down the Boise River. John and I premiered it at Florida State University in the Fall of 2003. We recorded it for John's CD, Dusk: Percussion Music from the Heartland.

very expensive for one piece of music

Comments:

other pieces that we have ordered are much less expensive. I think it is a lot to ask someone to spend $25. for one piece. yes I like the piece but really I am just as happy with pieces that cost 1/3 as much.

Fantastic!!!

Comments:

This piece of music is challenging and a total joy to play. It is very approachable but takes maturity to perform well. Both players involved in the practice and performance of this piece will have a great time and will make some wonderful musical memories! Great for recitals and events, the crowd loves it.
