Featured Video: ImPULSE by Austin Franklin

ImPULSE for percussion quartet was written for an aleatoric set of non-pitched percussion instruments, chosen by the performers according to only a few instructions given in the score. The piece is composed in two parts, held together by a somewhat constant quarter note pulse, from which the title is derived. This pulse grows in intensity until the very end of the piece where it creates the final climax.
