Encore 2 (percussion sextet - from Between Zero and One)
Overview
One of the several encores from the concert-length show "Between Zero and One" created in collaboration with New Zealand's Strike Percussion.
Here's a playlist with the demos I created for most of the tracks....
The show Between Zero and One landed strongly with audiences. I wrote several encores, to match the audiences' appetite. My favourite of the three encores is this one (dubbed "Encore 2"). It was meant as a kind of 'goodnight', and lullaby for the audience. Strike gathered around the vibraphone, clapping, stomping and singing. I think it works well as a self-contained piece so decided to revive it and make it available on the store.
Some screenshots of the score in the photo gallery below. And my original midi demo is in the SoundCloud playlist above.
