Duration: ca. 8'40"
Program Note:
“BEAM” is an exploration of the association between intervals and their affect on the brightness of sound.

It weaves through different combinations of these chords layered on top of one another forming an ever-changing cloud.
Instrumentation: percussion quartet
Required Percussion:
• 2 Marimba (5 Octave)
