Celebration of the Elements

San Francisco Contemporary Music Players

This family-friendly winter celebration begins with the visceral and reflective piece, "The Ice is Talking" by Vivian Fung. Scored for solo percussion and electronics, performed by Haruka Fujii, it is in essence a celebration of the elements, taking in the beauty of gliding through ice as taps and swishes shape into virtuosic rhythmic patterns. Also on the program is "community-made" piece designed by Jason Treuting, titled "How to (Blank)."
