Fell
pure rhythm, also sports.
Strokes at different speeds.
Rhythm is always also melody!
The piece has a pull, like a perpetuum mobile, which also applies to a single stroke on a (drum) skin, through the rebound of the stick: the energy of the stroke thus comes back and is at the same time the energy for the next stroke.
Thank you, Enno, for the piece.
