About

SPIRIT, POWER & ENERGY of the GONG

This duo consists of Percussionist/Gong Specialist Stephan Brandstatter and multi-instrumentalist/ethnomusicologist Dennis Waring. The performance is comprised of improvised compositions played “in the moment” on a wide assortment of instruments. The mood is calming, evocative, ethereally soothing and therapeutically healing. Dennis plays saxophones, clarinet, a variety of flutes and ocarinas. Stephan plays an array of gongs, chimes, Tibetan bowls, bells, djembe, frame drum, dumbek and more. Based on world music inspirations, VIBRANT ENSEMBLE’s soundscapes incorporate the ambience of nature, the exoticism of Asia & the Middle East along with the pulsations of Africa & Latin America. Become immersed in the vibrations of the gongs and enveloped by the melodious wind instruments. Treat yourself to something unique and special. This performance is free. KEEP AN OPEN MIND: TUNE IN AND GET TUNED UP!...
