Percussion Concerto No. 2

Více o knize

The Percussion Concert No. 2, premiered in 2014, builds on the success of MacMillan's earlier work, Veni, Veni, Emmanuel. This 25-minute piece features a continuous structure with contrasting sections and incorporates a full orchestra. A notable aspect is the use of the Aluphone, a recently invented instrument, by the soloist, enhancing the concert's unique sound. The anticipation surrounding its debut, performed by Colin Currie and the Dutch Radio Philharmonic, reflects the growing acclaim for MacMillan's innovative contributions to contemporary percussion music.
