Description

In Contact by David Skidmore challenges the skills of four percussionists in a chamber piece that demands a very high level of communication. The opening section utilizes drums and rim clicks of all sizes and timbres, transitioning to a more reflective middle section that focuses on resonant metal sounds. The final segment synthesizes these two ideas together, creating an intruiging series of grooves.

Instrumentation

  • Kick Drums (2)
  • Metal Pipes (4)
  • Brake Drums (4)
  • Chinese Toms (4)
  • Medium Toms (4)
  • Low Toms (4)
