The newest CD by the internationally acclaimed percussion ensemble NEXUS features the premier recordings of two major works for percussion quintet: The Invisible Proverb by NEXUS member Russell Hartenberger; and Percussion Sonata Number 2 by Grammy Award-winning composer Peter Schickele. Also included are four medleys of famous popular songs from the 1920’s, arranged by xylophone virtuoso Bob Becker.

« It is very uplifting to hear music from a ‘serious’ contemporary ensemble that exudes such flair and fun! highly recommended. »
