About this arrangement

Percussion Ensemble - Med-Advanced SKU: TA.TSPCE17-020 For percussion ensemble. Composed by Jim Casella. Percussion Ensembles. Folio & Parts on CD-ROM. Tapspace Publications #TSPCE17-020. Published by Tapspace Publications (TA.TSPCE17-020). Jim Casella's work Truth or Consequence was written during the convergence of 2016 and 2017. As Casella states, As I write this, it is a time where facts are selective and manipulated in ways to calibrate media coverage for political gain. As a result, the concept of truth has been endangered to the point where personal opinion can be passed off as fact however false it may be. This frightens me, and I fear the consequences the world will face as a result. The work is an abstract expression of darkness, tension, surprise, power, and anger. Full of action, colorful vocal effects, and recurring syncopation it has a cinematic quality that doesn't relent and is sure to engage intermediate percussion students as well as audiences.
