OMP003 Benjamin Thorn Where's the other one?

Where's the other one is a three movement work, its outer movements being characterized by fast tempos, changing meters, and the continuous altering of a brief melodic shape.  The middle movement is more through-composed and less rhythmic.  Though the compass of notes available in a piece for two recorders played by a single performer (thus the witty title) is very small, Thorn manages to get quite a lot from the situation by using the instruments in counterpoint as well as parallel motion.
