@MERTx123 From Nikk Pilato's dissertation, which the information for this video was taken: "The title of the work is in reference to the properties exhibited by matter involved in any sort of recoiling motion, such as a rubber band or a spring." Mystery solved.
There are two parts in this piece that make me want to die when we play it. lol. (Im a percussionist) The rest of the piece is easy... But those two parts are freaking hard as hell. The first 15 measures and the part when everyone sings is a b****. lol
This has quickly become my favorite band piece. Does anybody know why it's called Recoil?

@soggybagpipes I'd still love to know what Joseph Schwantner meant by that title!
