Before the Orchestra: #Drums

The oldest instruments in the world are the theme of the next "Before the Orchestra" meeting. Timpani, drums, marimba, cymbals, triangles are just some of the whole set of percussion instruments, which are somewhat the heart of the orchestra. By means of drumsticks they will be heard solo, in duets and ensembles, demonstrating a broad spectrum of sounds. During the concert entitled "#Drums" musicians from Szczecin Philharmonic Symphony Orchestra will talk about their origin, history and structure.

Program includes selected excerpts from:
Darius Milhaud – Concerto for Percussion and Small Orchestra
Darius Milhaud – Concerto for Marimba, Vibraphone and Orchestra
Andrzej Panufnik – Concerto for Timpani, Percussion and String Orchestra
