Flesh and Bone by Rick Dior is comprised of a six-piece mallet ensemble and two percussion soloists - one that plays with their hands (flesh) and one with sticks (bones). This energetic, groovy work is a good time to listen to, and features a serious challenge that is perfect for a high-level ensemble.
