Reinforced (2015) for percussion ensemble and electronics

10’

A piece of musique concrète "reinforced" with live percussion. The fixed audio material was created by recording concrete blocks being scraped with masonry bricks, rails, cymbals, and other concrete blocks, and then manipulating these recordings with convolution processing.
Music inspired by Brutalist architecture.

Performed 08.09.15 in Montpelier, VT by members of Talujon Percussion: Ian Antonio, Matthew Gold, Michael Lipsey, and Matt Ward. ( www.talujon.com )
