Description

Nzuri Mwana by Chuck Ricotta is a nuanced work representing rhythms and sounds from Africa. Accompanying a flute soloist who plays throughout the piece are keyboard players and percussionists that set the rhythmic and harmonic atmosphere of the work. This piece is a great way to keep an audience engaged at any point in a percussion ensemble concert!
