• Excerpt from the Bang on a Can Marathon 2009 review on the New York Times

  Germany had a striking entry as well, in the pianist Shiau-uen Ding's daredevil account of Moritz Eggert's Hämmerklavier III: One Man Band, a piece that requires a pianist to beat on almost every surface of the instrument (sometimes while playing the keyboard), as well as stamp, sing and hit bass notes with her left foot.

  Abstract: Rhythmic performance practice between ensemble and tape is similar to that between solo instrument and tape, but additional challenges arise from synchronizing the ensemble with the tape while keeping the ensemble together. This paper presents some of the challenges of composing and performing works for small ensemble and tape as well as some guidelines for composers, based on experiences of NeXT Ens, a touring ensemble based at the University of Cincinnati College-Conservatory of Music.
