Composition for soprano and baritone saxophones, guitar, cello, and drums. This piece was written by Hemphill for Tim Berne’s album Diminutive Mysteries (Mostly Hemphill) (1993). The archive includes a score in holograph.
Found on: Diminutive Mysteries (Mostly Hemphill).
From Marty Ehrlich: This score is marked “slow” and “quietly,” and indicates that the drums should use mallets on toms and cymbals. After the release of Diminutive Mysteries, Hemphill told me how inspired he was by the uniqueness of the sound Tim Berne got with his ensemble. He speaks to this point in the liner notes he wrote for the recording.
