Raush - Percussive Arts Society, USA If this recording project is any indication, the interest in percussion music 'down under' is 'alive and well and growing'. The project makes the wide variety of music recorded available to a large audience of percussion aficionados Author: PASOZ - JB REVOLUTIONS will certainly come in handy for Percussonists and percussion ensemble directors. All pieces could easily find a home in a high school or tertiary level program Author: Laurie Malone Kevin Man's Lullaby is one of the most beautiful pieces I have ever heard and is played beautifully Author: Percussive Notes Magazine (USA) review - Jason Baker This CD features 14 works for percussion ensemble published by Rhythmscape Publishing, making this a showcase of their offerings as well as a vibrant demonstration of percussion composition and performance in Australia. Many of the works were composed by members of the ensemble. The only arrangement is that of Elgar’s “Nimrod from the Enigma Variations,” which was arranged by ensemble member and conductor, Gordon Hughes. This CD features works for various ensemble instrumentations: drum-oriented ensembles (“Bang, Volume 4” and “DTKT”), large keyboard ensembles (“Lullaby for Marimba” and “Reflex”), large ensembles with multiple instruments (“First Transformation”), and percussion with piano (“Butterfly” and “Brother”). The performances are solid throughout, featuring several ensemble members as soloists. A DVD performance of “Symphony of Palms,” an entertaining work for “body percussion,” is also included. All of the pieces for pitched percussion are tonal, and non-pitched pieces are “groove oriented,” making this recording accessible to a wide variety of listeners.
