CRESCENDOS. January\&##39;s Percussion Ensemble concert features our eight graduating seniors, who will perform the material they are preparing for their senior recitals–the climax of their undergraduate training and performing careers. The repertoire will be as diverse as our students, and the performances will reflect the rigor and exuberance that mark undergraduate percussion study at UM. The program will include Steve Reich\&##39;s "Six Marimbas"; György Ligeti\&##39;s "Continuum"; "Trio Per Uno" by Nebojsa Jovan Zivkovic; the premiere of a new quintet by Christopher Deane; and Bob Becker’s “States Medley” of popular 1920s tunes for ragtime xylophone.
