The Rush of the Brook Stills the Mind

Programme notes
To Scott Deal
The Rush of the Brook Stills the Mind for multi-percussion and live, interactive electroacoustics takes its inspiration from a poem with the same title by Wally Swist. The percussionist’s virtuosic foray through Swist’s evocative work pairs acoustic and electroacoustic forces into a single entity.
