Short Ride in a Fast Machine
Dame Evelyn Glennie,
percussion
Two works by John Adams give the New
Creations Festival a thrilling launch: the
exhilarating Harmonielehre, and the
punchy fanfare, Short Ride in a Fast
Machine. From north of the 49th parallel
comes the spectacular new percussion
concerto that Canadian composer
Vincent Ho wrote for the world’s foremost
percussionist, Dame Evelyn Glennie.
At 7:20pm, enjoy a pre-concert performance
by Lightning Drum.
Gary Kulesha chats with John Adams &
Vincent Ho during intermission.
Stay after the concert and enjoy live jazz music by Roberto Occhipinti Ensemble.
