Program Notes

Mousse, Rinçage, Répétition was composed as an opening selection for Drums Downtown IV (2007), the OSU Percussion Ensemble’s popular multi-disciplinary event. As a composer, I have always been interested in exploring and showcasing the manner in which percussionists move, placing as much emphasis on the visual aspect of the performance as the aural. This piece is the first that I’ve written, however, where the visual component completely dictated the compositional process. I wanted to create a piece that enabled the listener to visually follow the musical line, whether this occurs side-to- side, front-to-back, or randomly across the ensemble. Mousse, Rinçage, Répétition is comprised of three primary sections, appropriately fitting the title’s translation of “lather, rinse, repeat”.[1]
