Risk=Reward? The ultimate Dada musical score for 16 player pianos, percussion electric bells, siren, and 3 airplane propellers, Ballet mécanique is a riotous fusion of industrial sounds and Jazz with dense timbral clusters. Zuidam and
Veldhuis’s tour-de-force chamber works are virtuoso vehicles full of improvisation and vigor, while the Fluxus works are sure to astonish you. Worth the Risk!
