From The Archives: NEXUS plays “Fauna”

Almost exactly 21 years ago, on November 13, 1989, NEXUS performed at the the “NEXUS Now” CD.
Also on the WNYC broadcast is Wendy Mae Chambers’ “Night of the Shooting Stars,” (a tone poem for 16 percussionists inspired by The Leonids meteor shower), that features Jack-in-the Boxes, key chains, conch shells, sleigh bells, and slide whistles, as well as audience participation on siren whistles! There are also some shorter excerpts of performances by Dafos, Michael Daugherty and Evelyn Glennie.  Enjoy!
