A four movement work, for a concise ensemble of unpitched percussion instruments, combining dry, wooden timbres with resonant metal instruments. The four movements names were derived from the names of the members of the Milieu Quartet. This work would not have been possible without the close consultation of one of the quartet’s members, Christopher Salvito.
