Gottry-Xerosis (SP)-P

As a small, chamber work for handheld percussion, Xerosis by Josh Gottry is an excellent change of pace piece for percussion ensembles. Appropriate for run-out concerts, tour performances, or for a "front-of-curtain" selection to open your percussion ensemble concert, this creative exploration of friction sound possibilities is entertaining and engaging for audiences and performers alike.
