Satellite by Benjamin Holmes is an advanced level mallet duo with swirling marimba and vibraphone patterns and colors. Driving triplets throughout the work create a sense of momentum that mimics the rotation of the earth and its orbiting satellites. The triplets are occasionally altered through various metric modulations, representing a satellite's revolution around the planet. Performers’ abilities are challenged through sharp dynamic changes, quick timbre shifts, and interesting color combinations. Satellite is a whirlwind duo that will challenge even the most advanced players and enthrall audiences.

Satellite ships as a printed, professionally bound score and includes individual parts in PDF format for printing or tablet viewing.
