SUMMARY:Percussion Ensemble Festival Concert with Guest Omar Carmenates
DESCRIPTION:This concert will feature the western tradition of percussion i
 n the 21st century with most of the pieces being written in the last 10 ye
 ars.  No dead composers on this one.  We will pull out most of the percu

 f the “John Psathas Percussion Project”\, a multi-year collaboration a
 imed at recording and performing percussion ensemble arrangements of the w
 orks of New Zealand’s most prominent composer\, John Psathas. The record
 ings and scores from this project are published through PARMA Records and
