Andy is moving the chamber music genre forward, and I love it.

Holy damn, this is amazing - the music and performance by each player. The section at 2:30 is beautifully surreal. This is an iconic piece.

[@3navisuals329]

love this performance!

[@guitartrip9752]

I’m in Tennessee Tech’s Percussion Ensemble, and we’re playing this piece this semester, and it is, by far, one of the most difficult pieces I’ve EVER played. I LOVE this contemporary style composition!

[@spookiedukey]

Myself and the UofSC ensemble played this at PASIC 2021 and it was an amazing experience. It was a ton of fun to play and got such an amazing response!

OH MAN THAT WAS SPICY

Andy! Amazing like always! Congratulations!

[@JoshHumble]

REALLY like this piece - incredible.

[@jcbacongrease]

Brilliant!

[@just_so_meh_]

This sounds so mysterious and melodic I love it. It’s creative atmosphere of percussion instruments and the slaps of the rubber bands to even deafening the strings on the piano, different sticks for the vibraphone and the other xylophones. I would of loved to do this piece when I was still in college doing percussion courses.

Very interesting to hear the contrast between this version and the one for "Pierrot ensemble" plus drumkit (kzbin.info/www/bejne/h4XWgIuspK6KfKc). Both sound great; I wonder which form Akiho wrote it in first. He's a percussionist himself, so you might expect this one; yet even though it sounds wonderfully native to these sounds, it doesn't have nearly the color of the version with strings and woodwinds.

[@chrisgoulet5829]

Baribrotzer The Pierrot ensemble was the original. We commissioned this arrangement of it for our performance at the Percussive Arts Society International Convention in November of 2016.

Opening piano piece very similar to bluecoats 2014 wonder why🤔

[@danieldavis2049]

coincidence most likely

[@alexbraudperc]

They did use this piece (original version) in that show.

[@EtahainLevinski]

@@alexbraudperc they used a slightly altered version since brass was included
