NewMusicBox » The Influence Engine: Steve Reich and Pop Music
Interesting article on New Music Box by Tim Rutherford-Johnson. Check it out!
“Popular music appears to gain credibility; new music appears to gain relevance. As long as the “influence” of Reich’s music can be traced back up the chain, the narrative will keep feeding itself.”

Cold Water, Dry Stone-NASA Region 5
I had a performance earlier today with the student based new-music ensemble from MSU, Collective Behavior (CoBe) and it was a very wonderful experience. We performed the piece Cold Water, Dry Stone by Evan Chambers at the Region 5 NASA (North American Saxophone Association) conference. It was our first public performance of the piece, with 3 more to come in the next few months. I’m so excited to be playing new music with great musicians and colleagues!
Thanks guys!

The Beginnings of Contemporary Percussion Music w/Steven Schick
Steve Schick talks about (and performs) the origins and global development of percussion music. Very enlightening and entertaining. To any of you who have read his book “The Percussionist’s Art,” it’s so nice to hear many of those ideas “from the horses’ mouth” as they say. For those of you have not, enjoy some fantastic music and presentation of ideas.

“A blog about new classical music, art, and technology.”
I’ve been following this blog for a few weeks now. There’s some pretty neat stuff on it. You should check it out as well.
Percussion Duo
Here are my five “noises” for Paul Lanksy’s percussion duet Travel Diary. Yes, that is indeed a door nob. I finally have the fortune to be playing this piece, and with an exceptional colleague at MSU, Kelsey Tamayo. We’re thinking of playing more percussion duos seeing as we’re enjoying this one so much. Any suggestions?
