The definition of the Bliss Point is the point at which food has just the right amount of saltiness, sweetness, or richness to be at its peak deliciousness. This applies perfectly to this lyrical & sparkly keyboard percussion quintet for developing percussionists. The piece would offer a refreshing contrast on a program surrounded by more aggressive works.

Program Notes
The definition of the ,b>Bliss Point is the point at which food has just the right amount of saltiness, sweetness, or richness to be at its peak deliciousness. I believe this concept applies to many things in life though. Too little or too much of something and it diminishes the enjoyment you get out of it, and I think everyone has experienced this at some point. I thought the richness of the harmonies and the nostalgic sound of the music represented this concept well.
