Left Edge Percussion
Please join the HSU Department of Music for "Drumming at the Edge," a Guest Artist Series concert on Saturday, October 28th, featuring Left Edge Percussion, an artist-in-residence ensemble from the Oregon Center for the Arts at Southern Oregon University, led by artistic director Terry Longshore. Saturday, October 28 at 8:00 p.m. in Fulkerson Recital Hall. $10 General, $5 Senior/Child, $5 for HSU students with ID. Left Edge Percussion presents “Drumming at the Edge”, a dynamic and eclectic program featuring music by Mark Applebaum, John Cage, Erik Griswold, Terry Longshore, Steve Reich, Julia Wolfe, and Nick Zammuto. As artist-in-residence at the Oregon Center for the Arts at Southern Oregon University and led by artistic director Terry Longshore, Left Edge Percussion actively collaborates on innovative projects with composers and artists of various media. Featuring iconic classics such as John Cage’s “Third Construction” and Steve Reich’s “Music for Pieces of Wood”, the program also features contemporary, genre-crossing works such as “Green Yellow Green Red” by Nick Zammuto, member of genre-defying band The Books, scored for vibraphones, scratched records, and video collage; and Mark Applebaum’s “Aphasia” for gestures and pre-recorded sound, performed by Longshore. The concert also includes ”Dark Full Ride” by Bang on a Can founder Julia Wolfe, and Longshore’s own “Kangaroopak Sardha” for hand drum ensemble. Finally, the show closes with Erik Griswold’s “Strings Attached” for six snare drummers attached to each other and a 10-foot pole in the center of stage by ropes, creating a kinetic sculpture akin to seeing sine-waves shooting from the performers’ sticks.
