Mad Rush is an electro-acoustic mash-up presented by Brooklyn Classical and TURNmusic. EK Duo, featuring bassoonist Rachael Elliott & percussionist Thomas Kozumplik are joined by Mary Rowell to present a dynamic program of chamber & improvised music from across the spectrum. We look forward to sharing a bunch of new music with you drawn from our own arrangements of music by Padma Newsome, Thomas Kozumplik, Philip Glass, and others. The stage will be filled with an impressive array of instruments including a vibraphone, steel drum, kalimba, NBC chimes, and percussive skins complemented by bassoon, violin, voices, and electronic sampling and live processing. Expect the unexpected! From hummable tunes, to driving grooves, to ghostly electronic sounds, we'll traverse a spectrum of sound & meaning as we explore the outer reaches of this vast sonic palette.
