Three world premiere performances, one per festival concert, of the 2012 Look & Listen commission,Orbit Design, by composerDerek Bermel.
The work is a tribute to 20th century radical John Cage. The score
combines notation, improvisation, and chance elements that will come
alive uniquely when realized by a trio of percussions on May 12th, a
trio of flutists on May 13th, and Brooklyn Rider on May 14th.
Look & Listen regular since 2012So Percussion will curate the opening concert.
