Event Info
In Drumming, Japanese powerhouse percussionist Kuniko delivers a tour-de-force performance of the work, which is often considered minimalism’s first masterpiece. Performing all thirteen parts herself, and adopting the live multi-track approach employed in Reich’s classic Counterpoint works, Kuniko possesses the technical virtuosity and creative musicianship that makes her one of the world’s leading and most fun to watch percussionists.
