The first, entirely improvised NEXUS concert in 1971 marked the formation of a group that would touch & entertain people of all levels of musical learning, in all genres of percussion music. Bob Becker, Bill Cahn, Russell Hartenberger & Garry Kvistad are virtuosos alone, & bring elements of their knowledge & character to a distinct & powerful whole. They stand out in the contemporary music scene for the innovation & diversity of their programs, their impressive history of collaborations & commissions, their revival of 1920’s novelty ragtime xylophone music, & their influential improvisatory ideas. NEXUS’ firm commitment to music education & a steady output of quality CD recordings & compositions by its members continues to enhance the role of percussion in the 21st century. Program: Ravel-Menuet antique; Takemitsu-From me flows what you call Time; Mussorgsky/Ravel-Pictures at an Exhibition
