I created a new version of Conlon Nancarrow’s Study for Player Piano #5 for the Percussion Ensemble of The University of California, Davis run by the incredible Chris Froh. This version turns the piece into a pallindrome - starting with all 13 lines playing then gradually dropping out, before the original structure begins with a few lines starting and the others gradually appearing. It features marimba virtuoso Mayumi Hama.
