Four Square

Riley, Timothy

About the work

Four Square explores some of the possibilities available from 4 opposing groups of performers. The listener is situated inside the piece as the performers exchange musical ideas across the performance space. The three short movements show contrasting ways in which the performers can work together and in opposition.
