Bach opens his Christmas Oratorio with timpani beats! Percussion instruments can also sound very versatile and surprising. The TalkingDrums percussion quartet of the HMDK Stuttgart plays transcriptions and original compositions by J. S. Bach, Keiko Abe, Maurice Ravel and Iannis Xenakis, among others. With marimba, vibraphone, drums, gongs and other instruments from all over the world, they cast a spell over us. A diverse sound experience in an impressive setting.
