The combination of classical guitar and percussion intrigued many 20th century composers, who explored its technical possibilities and its unique color palette. UAA faculty member Armin Abdihodzic and UAA percussion student Eric Bleicher will present a program that features some of the acclaimed masterworks: Mundus Canis by George Crumb; Dias de los Muertos by Terry Riley; Episodes by Dietrich Erdmann; Draws by Ivan Patachich; Tai-chi by Sebastien Vachez; and many more.
Guitar will be paired with marimba, drums, tam tams, castanets and a variety of other percussion instruments, which makes this concert quite a unique experience for any listener.
