ANAM Percussion: Silence and Sound

Please note that in a change to the previously advertised program, Eugene Ughetti will be performing with ANAM Percussion rather than Jeffrey Means. We thank you for your understanding. Please note that the repertoire remains the same.

Founding artist director of Speak Percussion and conductor, Eugene Ughetti joins ANAM Percussion for a program that tests the limits of sound, silence, and performance.

The evening opens with James Tenney’s Having Never Written a Note for Percussion — a single, slowly rising and falling roll that transforms from near-silence to a wall of resonance, revealing the physical space of listening itself. Rick Burkhardt’s Great Hymn of Thanksgiving brings theatre into the mix, as performers speak and play through a darkly comic dinner-table scene. Vinko Globokar’s Kvadrat pushes precision and coordination to extremes, while Iannis Xenakis' Okho demonstrates flexibility and complexity within what is seemingly a restrictive and rigid setting.
