Composed in three short movements - Much More, Maybe, and Motivated - this work examines the notion of having my inner voice embodied elsewhere, in an attempt to create new space for processing emotion.  It also plays with repetition as an opportunity to bring new meaning, understanding, and perhaps some levity, to the language itself.  Each movement is a reimagining of vocal incantations that, driven by imaginative, virtuosic, and whimsical percussion scoring, re-center and re-purpose my voice as a tool for healing. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInstrumentation: \u003c\/strong\u003ePercussion quartet\u003cbr\u003ePlayer 1: Glockenspiel, Crotales, Snare Drum, Roland SPD-SX (1)\u003cbr\u003ePlayer 2: Metal Pipes (tuned G4, Ab4, G5, Ab5), Snare Drum, Roland SPD-SX (1)\u003cbr\u003ePlayer 3: Crotales, Snare Drum, Roland SPD-SX (2)\u003cbr\u003ePlayer 4: Glockenspiel, Snare Drum, Splash Cymbal, Roland SPD-SX (2)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMovements:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eI.
