First written for renowned Taiwanese Ju Percussion Group, Kyoto for percussion quintet is now available for purchase.

It showcases keyboard percussion with two vibraphones, 5-octave marimba (shared between two players) and glockenspiel. Other percussion instruments add flourishes in this work including triangle, tom-toms and splash cymbal. One player within the quintet takes on the role as soloist on vibraphone.
