The second volume of this collection expands and builds upon the concepts and ideas presented in the first, adding a three-part percussive accompaniment to bring the snare drum into an ensemble context. The pieces follow an aesthetic theme of meditation, which informed their structure, vocabulary, use of sound, and naming conventions. Each piece seeks to convey a particular idea or ambience, whilst also retaining musical coherence.
The pieces are challenging, and combing cutting-edge contemporary vocabulary with traditional rudimental repertoire, and contain elements of orchestral, French, pipe, and rudimental traditions.
The book contains full scores for the snare drum and three accompanyists, as well as extended essays that cover compositional analysis, theory, and performance notes.
