Water Marks

Written on a flight while traveling to Asia, Miceli wanted to compose a difficult yet lyrical piece for solo vibraphone. The resulting “Water Marks” is so named because it is reminiscent of drops of rain splashing as they fall into a puddle.

For Solo Vibraphone

“I wrote Water Marks on a plane traveling to Asia. I had most of it done in about 10 hours or so. When I listened back, I had the image of water splashing onto something. Many times the vibes remind me of rain drops or splashes of water. Just a weird thing in my head. I also wanted to write a challenging vibe piece. And this one is difficult. However I didn’t want it to sound too crazy; I like lyrical things. So I wrote it on the plane, went home and tried to play it and realized how difficult it is. I remember learning it and wishing I had more time. If you can put the time in to master this piece like I did, hopefully your playing will give your listeners the relaxing imagery of splashing water, like I got on that plane!”
