A percussion instrument is any object which produces a sound when hit with an implement or when it is shaken, rubbed, scraped, or struck in a way that sets the object into vibration. The evening will consist of four individual musicians coming together and collaborating to create about 90 minutes of contemporary percussion music. The repertoire Tala Rasa will be performing focuses mainly on the discovery of new sounds from "found" or "discovered" instruments, such as clay flower pots, steel pipes, and wooden slats. More traditional percussion instruments will be integrated into the program as well in order to create a full musical experience.
