Wind-Up. Release
multi-percussion solo | 3’45” | medium-advanced | 2012
Wind-Up. Release. is based on two ideas. The first is that the music is an interpretation of multiple gears, each having their own individual function, working together the way the inside of a wind-up toy might look. It is then released and, after a short period of time, begins to slow back down as each gear finishes performing its specific task. The second idea is the concept of rhythmic tension and release that is found in funk drumming. This concept is most obvious at letter "C".
