{"product_id":"surfboard-jobim-gusseck","title":"Jobim-Surfboard arr. Gusseck (SP)-B\/V\/X\/M\/4T\/P","description":"Surfboard by Antonio Carlos Jobim arranged for percussion ensemble by Murray Gusseck. Surfboard was written during the bossa nova explosion of the 1960s by Antonio Carlos Jobim, the world-renowned Brazilian composer and piano player. Jobim happened to be in Los Angeles making a record when he was taken by a friend to the nearby Malibu Surfrider Beach. He was so inspired by the scene there that he bought a surfboard to take back to Brazil as a present for his son. This instrumental number was presumably written shortly thereafter. It has since been re-recorded by many different artists, including Sergio Mendes (with will.i.am) and Stereolab (with Herbie Mann).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn this adaptation Gusseck lays the groundwork for players to focus on the polyrhythmic \"four over three\" aspect of the melody while not requiring technique beyond two mallet playing. Scored for 8-9 players.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eInstrumentation:\u003cbr\u003eGlockenspiel, Xylophone, Vibraphone, 4.3-Octave Marimba, Timpani, Hi-Hat, Ride Cymbal, Crash Cymbal, Snare Drum, High\/Low Tom Toms, Claves, Small\/Large Cowbells, Tambourine, Whistle","brand":"Steve Weiss Music","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43826883428406,"sku":"TSPCE14-004","price":19.97,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0563\/3055\/1350\/files\/jobim-surfboard-arr-gusseck-sp-b-v-x-m-4t-p.jpg?v=1773487977","url":"https:\/\/www.steveweissmusic.com\/products\/surfboard-jobim-gusseck","provider":"Steve Weiss Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
