I Am Nature: world premiere

Boom! International Festival of Percussion presents.

Australia's premiere new music ensemble, Synergy Percussion, and internationally acclaimed musician, J.B. Smith, come together to present a new work by American composer, Daniel Lentz, based on his 2019 solo piano work, I Am Nature.

An homage to Jackson Pollock, this work utilises innovative technology to generate dense layers of material organically derived from the performers.

Lentz has used live multi-track recordings in many of his pieces dating back to the 1960s, but the new arrangement adds acoustic and dramatic power to the process.
