Jeremy Rose & The Earshift Orchestra - Disruption! The Voice Of Drums

Jazz composer-saxophonist Jeremy Rose and the 8-piece Earshift Orchestra bring a thrilling tribute to the timeless, visceral and disruptive power of the drum. Featuring extraordinary drum virtuosi Simon Barker and Chloe Kim, 'Disruption! The Voice of Drums' is a riveting experience. Premiering to wide acclaim at the 2020 Sydney Festival, the work examines one of the most disruptive years in history, with bush fires, global pandemic, civil unrest and a growing ecological disaster. Whilst challenging us all, this major new work offers an opportunity to reflect.
