Program Notes
Three Interludes for percussion quintet was written during the summer of 2022 while visiting my wife's family in Kenya. My goal for this work was to create a collection of pieces that could be used to showcase the different rhythmic and timbral possibilities found in often overlooked instruments. They are not meant to be performed as a whole work but as individual pieces. They can be used as transition pieces between larger set changes or as standalone works on a concert program.
