Architek Percussion | Young | Eastman

Past event
Architek Percussion

Architek Percussion, alongside pianists Pamela Reimer and Daniel Añez, presents two works by Andrea Young and Julius Eastman. A unique concert experience characterized by the juxtaposition of subtle nuances and powerful sound waves.

Two major works are on the program: Angel's Share (2020) by Andrea Young, a meditative work for percussion quartet, explores the complex and evolving universe of scotch aromas, inspired by three rare single malt whiskies from the Ardbeg distillery. Young's exploration of deep timbres, dense sound masses, and the haunting melancholy of musical saws invites the audience to a sensory synaesthetic experience between taste and hearing. Architek Percussion then joins Montreal pianists Pamela Reimer and Daniel Añez for a performance of Julius Eastman's seminal minimalist work, Gay Guerrilla. This performance helps to reaffirm Eastman's place as one of the most innovative composers of his time, a status that was initially denied to him because of his race and sexual orientation.
