Blur by Cesar Gonzalez is a med-advanced percussion ensemble piece, featuring a large sound palette and an exciting, driving rhythmic force. As the title suggests, the texture of the piece moves from thin and transparent to thick and blurred, with many different instruments playing their independent lines simultaneously. In addition to standard percussion instruments and techniques, Blur calls for an array of auxiliary instruments and extended techniques, adding to the variety of sound colors Gonzales achieves.
