{"product_id":"vagabond-of-light-tyson","title":"Tyson-Vagabond of Light (SP)-B\/V\/M","description":"Vagabond of Light by Blake Tyson is a trio scored for 4.3 octave marimba, vibraphone, and glockenspiel. This piece was inspired by the image of fireflies transforming a dark forest into a warm, glowing expanse of lights. This trio was written for the Caixa Trio and premiered at the Oklahoma Day of Percussion in Jenks, Oklahoma in April 2013.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFrom the composer:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"When Julie Hill and I began talking about a new piece for the Caixa Trio, I mentioned the idea of fireflies. She told me, coincidentally, that her favorite word in Portuguese is \"vagalume,\" which means firefly, and literally translated is, \"vagabond of light.\" I knew right away that it was the perfect title for the piece.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe imagery of transformation in Vagabond of Light symbolizes something more. Not long ago, I suddenly faced the very real possibility of losing the one person who, since I was eighteen, I couldn't imagine my life without. There are many emotions that flood over you when a loved one faces serious illness — fear, anger, desperation, sadness, and a hundred others. But, this piece isn't about that experience. Instead, it is about coming out on the other side of it.\"","brand":"Steve Weiss Music","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43826961219638,"sku":"TYSONVAGABOND","price":34.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0563\/3055\/1350\/files\/tyson-vagabond-of-light-sp-b-v-m.jpg?v=1773489480","url":"https:\/\/www.steveweissmusic.com\/products\/vagabond-of-light-tyson","provider":"Steve Weiss Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
