Farr's Dialogue, for vibraphone and marimba, is perfect for percussionists looking for a duo work that is inspired by and incorporates elements of Indonesian gamelan music. Each of the three movements centre on an aspect of the gamelan playing style, which includes interlocking techniques and virtuosic complexity with mixed meters and fast syncopated rhythms.
