Goldrush : for percussion / JacobTV - Jacob Ter Veldhuis
Other authors:
Veldhuis, Jacob ter
(Composer)
Description:
By request of the legendary Safari Duo, Goldrush involves the whole family of percussion instruments. Although music is an abstract art form it can tell stories too. 'Goldrush' is an adventure; while listening, you can imagine people exploring new land in search of gold which led to so many catastrophes in the history of mankind. In the coda, at the end of a thorough musical expedition, the musicians discover the pure, shining gold, represented by crotales, chimes and the glockenspiel.
