4 players total<\/p>

tenor saxophone, marimba, guitar and piano<\/p>

Hout (Wood) was written for Loos at the request of Dirk Simons. Although the whole work is in principle a strict canon, the successive voices are so close together that it is more like a unison melody with ramifications.<\/p>

Ramifications and branches are the same word in Dutch. This especially refers to the branches of a tree, so the use of wooden instruments – marimba and woodblocks – help explain the title of the work.\u00a0<\/p>
