Antithese: Theatrical Percussion - Kagel, Burkhardt, Applebaum, S.S.Smith
Antithese is a program of humorous and dramatic works for music-theatre focusing mainly on works that bring emphasis to the theatrical aspects of percussion performance. This project features the nonsensical absurdity and the instigating ingenuity of works by composers Mauricio Kagel, Vinko Globokar, Rick Burkhardt, Stuart Saunders Smith, and Mark Applebaum.
