Brian Blume's Friction is a tour de force for marimba duo with audio accompaniment. Masterfully composed, the work consists of two movements--I. Internal and II. External--that each explore the concept of friction in different ways that have the potential to raise the hairs on the back of your neck. The audio accompaniment tracks create a tense, electric sound bed on which the two marimbists spin a complicated web of rhythmic and harmonic dissonance that delivers a powerful musical (even cinematic) experience to the listener.

This piece comes as a professionally printed and bound score and includes individual parts in PDF format for printing or for tablet viewing. It also includes stereo accompaniment tracks in WAV format.
