Propulsion (2018) 7’
As the title suggests, this piece is – well – propulsive! It keeps going at the same steady, driving tempo from the first note to the last. Sometimes the music is loud and rhythmical, sometimes it’s quieter and more lyrical, but always moving forward. An elegant, efficient mechanism.
