	[[Almost Perpetual Torque]] was composed in the fall of 2012 upon the request of Dr. [[Susan Powell]], professor and director of percussion studies at Ohio State University. The original premier performance was given at the [[Percussive Arts Society International Convention]] in 2012. Dr. Powell is internationally recognized for her virtuosic musicianship on the xylophone. Though not a strict variation form, this composition does have a similar structure in that there are a series of variation like character studies for the xylophone that are accompanied by the vibraphone and marimba intertwined in patterns that seem to constantly spiral either upward or downward as if in a constant state of tension or “torque.”		[[Almost Perpetual Torque]] was composed in the fall of 2012 upon the request of Dr. [[Susan Powell]], professor and director of percussion studies at Ohio State University.
