Thornock / Coley / Kizilarmut / Morris / Thornock Between The Lines CD

Composer and Carillonneur Neil Thornock releases a collection of works for percussion that explores the dichotomy between instruments with little sustain and those whose over ringing can obscure and define the texture itself. Featuring performances by acclaimed soloists Matthew Coley, Thornock himself, and the Iowa Percussion Group and Iowa State University Percussion Ensemble conducted by Gerald Morris, the recording culminates with "Lurgy", a four movement work for carillon and percussion ensemble suggestive of Gamelan music.
