Inspired by the process through which particles gather to form a crystal, the work builds from small gestures into increasingly intricate patterns offering advanced players a chamber work that rewards precision, communication, and sensitivity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eScored for four players sharing two marimbas, the piece demands exceptional ensemble awareness as fast passages and rhythmic material move between performers. An array of less conventional techniques includes playing with mallet shafts, clicking and buzzing shafts together, and muting the marimba with the leg, while a large sizzle cymbal positioned between the marimbas expands the sound palette. These elements combine with passages of free time, independent accelerations and decelerations, and tightly synchronized rhythmic writing to create dramatic shifts between texture and intensity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis piece ships as a fully bound score.
