{"product_id":"ripeness-long","title":"Long-Ripeness (SP)-B\/V\/C\/X\/M\/P","description":"Ripeness by Phillip Long for percussion quintet. This short concert style overture uses a [0267] tetrachord, a nearly ubiquitous soundset found in modern literature, including music for concert bands, orchestras, and marching bands. Ripeness is a legal term describing when a claim is ready, or ripe, for adjudication. Among other reasons, courts avoid unripe cases because the facts are too abstract. This work avoids any abstractness by delineating the overarching motive clearly. Moreover, by the end of this work, the [0267] tetrachrod is certainly overripe and ready for the rubbish. This piece is for the developing percussion ensemble. The Northern Nash Percussion Ensemble (Rocky Mount, NC) commissioned Ripeness for performance at the 2006 Bands of America National Percussion Festival.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eInstrumentation:\u003cbr\u003ePlayer 1 - Bells, Xylophone\u003cbr\u003ePlayer 2 - Bells, Chimes, Xylophone (can be shared with Player 1), Suspended Cymbal\u003cbr\u003ePlayer 3 - Vibraphone\u003cbr\u003ePlayer 4 - Marimba\u003cbr\u003ePlayer 5 - Sizzle Cymbal, Suspended Cymbal, Hi-hat, Ride Cymbal, Bass Drum, Bongos, Four Medium Toms, Snare Drum, 2 Woodblocks, Cowbell, Wind Chimes","brand":"Steve Weiss Music","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43798512336950,"sku":"11950","price":36.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0563\/3055\/1350\/files\/long-ripeness-sp-b-v-c-x-m-p.jpg?v=1773367129","url":"https:\/\/www.steveweissmusic.com\/products\/ripeness-long","provider":"Steve Weiss Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
