One Man, A Thousand Drums: Joe Goglia

Since Dan had to go out of town today, I took charge (and took his equipment) to Katzin to record Joe Goglia’s senior percussion recital. You may heard Joe’s name mentioned before. He and I will be collaborating on Dobson’s Fall 2006 marching band show. Or maybe you’ve just been to one of his awesome parties. Either way, the recital was fantastic with an equally great turnout. The program included:

Boundary Waters (1982)
J.B. Smith

Congastuck (1993)
J.B. Smith
Aaron Morales, percussion

Come Away (1985)
Mark Goodenberger
Adrienne Turner, soprano

Portals (2004)
Bruce Hamilton

Un Camino De Tierra (1997)
J.P. Simoniello

The piece that featured Adrienne Turner was absolutely one of the most beautiful pieces I have ever heard. Adrienne’s beautiful soprano voice was accompanied by Joe on the vibraphone, an absolutely entrancing and hypnotic sound.

Congratulations Joe! Look forward to working with you! Now for photos…
