Program Notes
Kinetikus is essentially a composition for keyboard percussion orchestra. The main parts are scored for glockenspiel, crotales, tubular chimes, two xylophones, five marimbas, and three vibraphones. The concept of kinetic energy seemed to me an appropriate metaphor. The music is continuously “in motion” as passages of frenetic activity alternate with moments of relative repose. Pattern-based textures predominate, yet the overall form reflects a dramatic unfolding that sets Kinetikus apart from the more typical “minimalist” compositions, which are often static or process-oriented. Kinetikus was commissioned by the University of Houston Percussion Ensemble, and premiered in November 2009. [1]
