Program Notes

The star-filled night sky of the sparse desert comes to life with the pulsating rhythms and unique sound of the Nigerian udu (ceramic drum) and the metallic sounds of the Chinese cymbals. We can imagine the stars dancing as the energetic melody of the winds opens up to the syncopations and heavy bass sounds of dubstep, an electronic dance music originating in London in the late 1990s. The infectious, undulating rhythms of Celestial Rise are sure to get you moving.
