Pre-Pulse Suspended

A 1984 composition, in memoriam to Hyla's father, who died in that year, "Pre-Pulse Suspended is a tight piece structurally, but it covers a lot offeround in its concise single movement. The striking opening, a gritty and incisive duet for violin and bass clarinet, with each instrument restricted to a very narrow compass like a genie struggling to escape from a bottle, is mined continually in the course of the piece."
