Bang on a Can meets Burma in this cross-cultural collaboration with composer and percussionist Kyaw Kyaw Naing. Kyaw Kyaw Naing is a renowned master of the pat waing, the Burmese Drum Circle, a traditional instrument made of 21 separately tuned drums. These drums surround the player completely, and are played melodically at lightning fast speed. Kyaw Kyaw's blazing tempos and blistering musicality have made him famous throughout Southeast Asia, and he has used his gifts to become highly-sought-after as a composer of music for film and as a live performer at Burma's traditional kickboxing tournaments. On this CD, working with Western musicians for the very first time, Kyaw Kyaw matches his mastery of an ancient drumming technique with the edgy 21st century fireworks of Bang on a Can.
