    I have long explored the world of percussion through touch, revealing marvelous and hidden sound worlds in simple objects. This collection shows my lifelong passion of bringing such new works to light.  A number of these pieces have lived with me since my graduate days, others are recent commissions, but all have expanded my musical horizons in extraordinary ways.  Now by extending the world of physical percussion with virtual computer objects and processes, I am excited to enter new sonic and mental territories in the company of these many remarkable composers.

about

Newton's Rings (Christopher Burns, 2012) is an exploration of musical interference patterns. In each of the five moments, a handful of simple processes are used to construct the percussion material. While these developmental rules are straightforward (for instance, with each new phrase adding one note, accelerating one rhythmic group, or lengthening one silence), the interactions between the rules rapidly become complex, leading to unpredictable changes in the music. Another level of interference is produced by the electronics, which are generated entirely from the sounds of the soloist's performance. Echoes, reversals, filtering and pitch shifting are all used to transform the percussion sounds, and to concentrate our attention on different aspects of the percussion material. The electronic distortions also evolve over the course of each movement, creating a parallel trajectory to the percussionist's journeys.
