Night by Jamie Drake
Percussion music that breathes.
Featuring compositions by Stuart Saunders Smith, Paul Elwood, Kevin Volans and James Tenney, "Night" focuses on percussion music that gradually unfolds over time. This isn't minimalist music necessarily; rather it's music that alternates between flurries of activity and moments of stillness, music that allows sounds time to be fully heard and to envelope the listener, music that tells non-linear stories, music with ringing bells and thundering drums. This is music for thinking, for feeling, and for deep listening.
