This piece is scored for a large array of standard percussion instruments including brake drums, woodblocks, glockenspiel, cowbells, marimba, bass drum, and even muted Chinese gongs. Composed in ABA form, Miller first explores rhythmic characteristics in rapidly changing mixed meters. The middle section features marimbas in a quasi-aleatoric dialogue. The final section is a tour-de-force restatement and coda with some of the most original scoring for glockenspiel found in any work.
