Description
Chad Heiny composed Undisclosed in homage to the first percussion ensemble piece he ever played, Michael Colgrass’s Three Brothers. Like that piece, Undisclosed features three soloists out front and six performers in the back. The work is through-composed and boasts a relentless, exciting forward motion that is well served by its vibrant instrumentation of only non-pitched percussion and its dramatic use of dynamics.
