Surly Bonds (2009) for drum set was commissioned by Calabrese Brothers Music, LLC and was
written for and dedicated to percussionist Peter Jarvis. The principal underlying rhythm of the
work is a somewhat martial ostinato presented quietly on the snare drum. This unchanging
rhythm provides a grid against which other colors and rhythms attempt to break the “surly
bonds” and assert their own rhythmic identity. After a first unsuccessful attempt to overwhelm,
the voices try again—succeeding this time in achieving release in a free, cadenza-like passage.
However, the ostinato returns again until the work ends with the almost “desperate” silence
between the sounds of bass and snare drums.
