Williams-Rhythmic Journey No. 3: Post Minimal"-Riq"

Rhythmic Journey No. 3: Post-Minimal by B. Michael Williams was inspired by the motoric rhythms of such composers as David Lang, Paul Lansky, and John Luther Adams. Williams had been interested in writing a work for Egyptian riq that would explore the sounds of the so-called "post-minimalist" composers. This piece was written immediately following the composer's first time seeing a performance of Steve Reich's mallet quartet. Written for solo riq frame drum, duration: 6 minutes.
