We often hope that a single moment will last forever, yet a decade appears to go by ’too fast’ … TIME is a crucial decisive moment, a vast series of events, and everything between; it is the world’s most valuable non-renewable resource. Reflect on your personal experience with time, as the KAIROS PERCUSSION QUARTET explores numerous temporal concepts in the works of Weinfeld, Iyer, Seo and Reich.

Every time you go to a percussion concert, the experience usually resonates beyond the normal concert hall boundaries and genres. Exploration of rhythm, sounds and color are limitless in this percussion world of music making. For this program we present works that have been written within the past ten years, three of them within the past five years. The first three pieces on the program all have a similar instrumentaion – all players playing the same setup of instruments, constantly developing and searching as one. The final piece on the program is believed to be Crumb’s final written work and we’re very excited to be able to present it here, as part of the California Festival. In comparison to the first half, it is a total explosion of instruments (almost 100) and color. Evoking an other-worldly experience, treading the line where nature meets sound in an endless exploration of time and color.
