Riptide by Patrick Speranza captures this essence, weaving a tale that oscillates between tranquility and tempest.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eAt the heart of the piece is a marimba soloist with decent command of four-mallet technique.  The soloist begins with a lyrical chorale that paints serene shorelines and gentle tides. This soon takes a darker turn with an ostinato in 7\/8 that bubbles up from the depths from the rest of the ensemble, and off we go. Rocking, half-time 4\/4 grooves provide contrast and head-bobbing.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eModern, accessible, and energetic, the piece stands as both a challenge for performers and a treat for audiences. Embrace the flow and exhilarating pull of the Riptide!\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eRiptide ships as a printed, professionally bound score and includes individual parts in PDF format for printing or tablet viewing.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003ch2\u003eAdditional Information:\u003c\/h2\u003e\r\n\u003cul\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eNumber of players: 11\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eDifficulty: Intermediate\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eInstrumentation:\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cul\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eGlockenspiel\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003e2 Vibraphones\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003e3 Marimbas — (3) all low A\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003e4 Timpani\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eConcert bass drum, 4 concert toms, snare drum, China cymbal, hi-hat, ride cymbal, splash cymbal, suspended cymbal, brake drum, finger cymbals, 5 temple blocks, triangle, wind chimes\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\r\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Steve Weiss Music","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43826932383798,"sku":"TSPCE23-030","price":39.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0563\/3055\/1350\/files\/speranza-riptide-sp-b-2v-3m-4t-p.jpg?v=1773517344","url":"https:\/\/www.steveweissmusic.com\/products\/speranza-riptide","provider":"Steve Weiss Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
