About This Performance
Since time immemorial, humans have utilized percussion in ceremonial, sacred, and communal rituals. This pair of concerts focuses on the exotic use of percussion to express extremes.
From the primal utterances of Xenakis' Rebonds to Bartok's folk-tinged Sonata to Crumb's ephemeral and haunting Music for a Summer Evening, this program highlights an endless array of percussive possibilities.
