For percussion ensemble (4 players). Slip-stream was composed for Ensemble Bash. The vibraphone is the protagonist, opening the work with a melodic idea which serves as a refrain. Elsewhere, the glockenspiel and vibraphone are held together in a ghostly dance to the accompaniment of the gentle wash of three suspended cymbals.
