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.
