AaronHoustonMusic ยท Triptych, mvt. III - "Burn"
Triptych is presented in three continuous movements. The initial movement, titled (254), introduces a focal point of the composition: groupings of 2, 5, and 4 beats. All three movements are woven together through this pattern and the melodic material which makes up the entirety of the second movement (Still) and reprised as a short interruption in the final movement (Burn). Triptych asks the performers to not only rhythmically accurate with intricate polyrhythms, but also sensitive to the beauty of a simple melody and transparent, welcoming harmonies.

Commissioned and premiered by Lagan Percussion.
