Time Intermittent
for solo multiple percussion
Time Intermittent utilizes a mirrored set-up with a bongo, concert tom, metal pipe and woodblock on either side of the performer. Each side of the set-up is utilized by only one hand and a central snare drum is shared by both. The notation of the piece reflects this set-up by using regular and empty noteheads to designate which hand performed each note. Sometimes the hands work together to create a linear melody while other times the hands perform seemingly unrelated parts.
This work was commissioned and premiered by Tim Feerst at the University of Utah in the Spring of 2019.
