Marco Schirripa presents this beautifully lyrical and nostalgic middle section is flanked by two groovy sections in this trio for 2 flutes and marimba. One might even think of this as more of a duo, with the two flutes combining to achieve what is possible on just one marimba.

From the composer:

The idea for the work arose after hearing a beautiful work by my former teacher and mentor, Gordon Stout, which also utilized two flutes with percussion instruments. The three involved instruments do not necessarily function as a trio, but more of a duo, with the two flutes combining to achieve what is possible on just one marimba. The opening and closing sections are meant to be primarily groove-based and dissonant, while the middle section is more lyrical and nostalgic. I composed this piece shortly after graduating from Ithaca College and moving away from a place I called home for five years, and the middle section is intended to represent the feelings associated with such a time. Otherwise, the work carries no programmatic elements and is simply music for the sake of music.

Instrumentation: 2 flutes, marimba (5-octave)
