On your mark…get set...ROTATE! Wait, what? That’s right, ROTATE! In this piece percussionists physically move to other positions on stage to play different instruments (and try to stay in the right place musically). The Vibraphone player moves to play Bells, Xylophone to Timpani, Congas to Cymbals. As if the concept of players and mallets-in-motion isn’t challenging enough, the time signature constantly changes. Unless executed with precision, this piece could turn into one giant KERFUFFLE! |
