Music for Snare Drumz is an immersive exploration of resonance, texture, and rhythm, blending experimental minimalism, unconventional percussion techniques, and nuanced sonic transmutation.
Featuring performers Aaron Butler, Jon Rodriguez, Storm Benjamin, and James Doyle. Audiences will encounter hypnotic durational works and unconventional percussion techniques that provide tactile percussion textures with a meditative edge. The performance will emphasize space and silence as much as sound, creating an introspective yet physical experience for the audience. Music for Snare Drumz features compositions by:
• Tim Feeney
• Alvin Lucier
• Sarah Hennies
• John Luther Adams
• Amy Beth Kirsten
• Shin-Ichiro Ikebe
• Tonia Ko
Chairs will be provided, but audience members are also welcome to bring yoga mats, cushions, or pillows for a more relaxed, floor-seating experience.
Composer/improviser Carlos Cotallo Solares will start the concert with a solo set for electric guitar and effects pedals.
Presented by Seattle Percussion Works.
