Corpus-Live Together, Die Alone (SP)-4T/Cro./P

Live Together, Die Alone was composed for percussion quartet, each performer playing an individual timpano. Instead of having one percussionist play all four timpani, each player is responsible for one drum and additional metallic sounds. This orchestration requires an extra level of cooperation and teamwork from the ensemble, hence the title.
