Flawed Perfection for solo marimba by Dustin Schulze aurally demonstrates the the idea that beauty and angst can exist simultaneously. Written for intermediate performers, this four-mallet solo utilizes idiomatic patterns and specific stroke types to serve as an educational tool as well.
A foot pedal with shaker attachment is added halfway through the piece, adding an earthy pulse to the somewhat minimalist, repetitive compositional language.
