During my first semester at South Plains College, I established a percussion quartet that greatly exceeded my expectations. While programming music for the semester, I wanted to play a piece that contrasted the drum-centric music that usually appears in most percussion ensemble performances. This performance uses only metallic percussion instruments of indefinite pitch and creates a unique musical atmosphere.
When you have a moment, please watch our performance of "Ting" by Josh Gottry.
Special thanks go out to the student performers and the amazing audio and video faculty here at South Plains College. Dolf Guardiola, Matt Quick, Jeremiah Denning, Greg Cook, and Andrew Taylor all assisted with this recording and did fantastic work.
