BBC Proms 2018 Proms at Cadogan Hall 05, Colin Currie / JACK Quartet (320kbps .mp3)
Live at BBC Proms: percussionist Colin Currie and the JACK Quartet perform works by Xenakis, and world premieres by Simon Holt and Suzanne Farrin (BBC Proms commission).
Award-winning British percussionist Colin Currie joins forces with dynamic contemporary music specialists, the JACK Quartet, for a programme of 20th- and 21st-century works, including world premieres by Simon Holt and Suzanne Farrin.
These are joined by two virtuosic Xenakis chamber works - the impossibly demanding Rebonds B for solo percussion and the 1983 string quartet Tetras with its eerie, woodwind-like sound manipulation and unsettling rhythmic patterning.
