Dresher Ensemble Studio [2201 Poplar Street Oakland, California]
Moe Staiano
conducts his electric guitar ensemble with the premiere of Music for 48 Guitars (24 guitar version). This is an exploration of tonal interplay and contrasting rhythms with eight electric guitars, bass, drums, and percussion. It features assertive rhythmic structures and intertwining tremolo structures, balanced by continuous play against each guitarist with bouncing rhythms and ongoing hockets while surrounding the audience with a bombastic attack.
