    This is a percussion quintet written for Nexus that lasts around 20-25 minutes. It is audience friendly without being overly simple or gimmicky like so many other percussion works. While the score calls for song bells it is possible to play that part on a vibraphone 8va with a few moments of using harmonics to get the full range required.
