{"product_id":"whyte-harrison-modes","title":"Whyte-Harrison Modes, The (SP)-B\/CRO\/2M\/P\/2V","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn The Harrison Modes, Chistopher Whyte pays homage to visionary composer Lou Harrison by way of four pentatonic modes on which Harrison heavily relied in his own compositions. These four modes appear thoughout The Harrison Modes as landmarks which delineate the four main sections of the piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eIn the spirit of Harrison's fearlessness, Whyte explores a wide expanse of tonal varieties in standard percussion instruments, both tonal and unpitched. Use of varied implements, fingers, bows, and tuned ceramic bowls harken to sounds often found in the Harrison oeuvre. While contemporary in character, this medium-advanced ensemble for 9 players will surely captivate any audience while giving players a rich musical vehicle in which to perform.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe Harrison Modes ships as a printed, professionally bound score, and includes individual parts in PDF format for printing or tablet viewing.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003ch2\u003eAdditional Information\u003c\/h2\u003e\r\n\u003cul\u003e\r\n    \u003cli\u003eNumber of Players: 9\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n    \u003cli\u003eDifficulty: Med-Advanced\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n    \u003cli\u003eInstrumentation:\r\n        \u003cul\u003e\r\n            \u003cli\u003eCrotales (2 octaves)\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n            \u003cli\u003eGlockenspiel\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n            \u003cli\u003e2 vibraphones\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n            \u003cli\u003e2 marimbas - (1) low A, (1) 5-octave\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n            \u003cli\u003eDrums - bongos, doumbek, conga (low), djembe, concert bass drum\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n            \u003cli\u003eGongs \u0026amp; cymbals - opera gong, 2 suspended cymbals (high\/low), sizzle cymbal, tam-tam\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n            \u003cli\u003eAccessories - Jal Tarang (ceramic bowls tuned with water), temple blocks, high-pitched metal, maracas\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n        \u003c\/ul\u003e\r\n    \u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Steve Weiss Music","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43826929762358,"sku":"TSPCE22-016","price":49.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0563\/3055\/1350\/files\/whyte-harrison-modes-the-sp-b-cro-2m-p-2v.jpg?v=1773513033","url":"https:\/\/www.steveweissmusic.com\/products\/whyte-harrison-modes","provider":"Steve Weiss Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
