'The Wind that Cradles the Clouds' for solo marimba (5 oct.) by Joey Eng

!!! BUY THE SHEET MUSIC at www.joeyengmusic.com !!!
This piece, as the title suggests, was composed with the clouds and the sky in mind. At first, it started out as an improvisation that I would play around with to escape a very busy schedule, but as time moved on and the widespread panic of COVID-19 grew, the piece’s meaning was moulded into something else. Now, I like to think that this piece is about a search for a silver lining amongst hardship; that is to find comfort and a clearing in a sky full of clouds.
Special thank you to Tim White, Steven Hartley, Pavan Kumar Hari and Thom Selim. Without you, this piece, and its video, would not be possible.

I'm not disliking the video, I am disliking this comment because it is cringe. Also the person who made this comment is extremely cringe. Lovely piece though.
