A twenty-minute percussion quartet, written for Peter Ferry and a percussion trio. We toured it to eleven schools in 2017–2019, under a different name. Now Peter performs a solo version with choreographed lights. It’s recorded but not yet released — a good video exists, with a release targeted for 2026.
