MSM Percussion ensemble performs Rain Tree by Toru Takemitsu

“For two marimbas and vibraphone soloist, Rain Tree is a work that helped set the bar for quality percussion ensemble compositions. With a little lighting work and some camera magic we were able to turn MSM’s Bossi-Comelli into a blackbox theater for the day!” — Jude Traxler, Percussion Faculty

Original Composition/Performance Selected by Downbeat Jazz Magazine

Songwriter/Guitarist – Philippe Clément (BM ’22)

Personnel:
Stéphane Clément – Trumpet
Vittorio Stropoli – Piano/Keyboard/Synth
Nolan Nwachukwu – Bass
Miguel Russell – Drums
