Unsnared Drum Update
As you might remember, I'm embarking on a commissioning and recording project with the goal of changing how people think about the snare drum. After the premiere of her wonderfully creative Heart.Throb last month in Lawrence, I sat down with Nina Young to talk about how she approached writing for the snare drum. I'm looking forward to recording her piece soon, but in the meantime, you can watch some of our conversation, which quickly devolved into an extended improvisation on her Marvin.
