Junge Deutsche Philharmonie / Vivi Vassileva / Stanislav Kochanovsky

In the organizer's words:

Frozen in Time

"We drummers just have this spirit of discovery," says the young drummer Vivi Vassileva about herself and her drumming community. "We love discovering and combining new instruments and new sounds." What she means by this can be seen in the piece "Frozen in Time" by Avner Dorman, which the Israeli composer once wrote for Vassileva's teacher Martin Grubinger. In addition to countless drums, cymbals and mallet instruments such as the wooden marimba, the metal vibraphone or the glockenspiel, instruments such as the African djembe, the Arabic darbuka or several cencerros - a kind of "tuned cowbells" - are used here, which can even be played as melody instruments.
