Description

Hidden Universe by Ben Cato is a piece for three players on a single five-octave marimba. It was composed as an ode to the wondrous complexity of the cosmos, both known and unknown.

With two players operating from the normal side of the instrument while the third player plays from the accidentals side, the work is scored such that two of the players often act as a single player with four hands while the third performs an accompanist’s role. The syncopated and split nature of the parts requires a high level of rhythmic confidence, independence, and interdependence amongst the performers.
