{"product_id":"drops-elvert","title":"Elvert-Drops (SP)-4M","description":"Drops by Ryan Elvert for marimba quartet. This piece was inspired by the composer observing a rainstorm come and go one evening. As the storm started, the drops were falling sporadically, and every so often enough water would collect on a leaf to create a single drop that would fall to the ground. At once, the rain started to fall quicker with increasing velocity until there was a constant wall of water cascading from the sky. Elvert sat and marveled at the beauty, which I translated into the harmonic colors of the piece. Finally, the storm calmed. The ending depicts the rain dwindling down from an intense downpour into a soft sprinkle that dies away into nothing. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eInstrumentation:\u003cbr\u003eMarimba 1 (4-octave)\u003cbr\u003eMarimba 2 (4.5-octave)\u003cbr\u003eMarimba 3 (4-octave)\u003cbr\u003eMarimba 4 (4.5-octave)\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Steve Weiss Music","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43800292360246,"sku":"22080","price":28.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0563\/3055\/1350\/files\/elvert-drops-sp-4m.jpg?v=1773372312","url":"https:\/\/www.steveweissmusic.com\/products\/drops-elvert","provider":"Steve Weiss Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
