Brett Dietz’s Behold a Pale Horse for amplified bassoon and percussion quartet puts the bassoon through a guitar pedal effects; and Theodor Burkali’s TRaInspOrt is a fiery piece for bassoon and 2 percussion. Also featuring percussionists Andrew Riley and Matthew Nichols, and Hamiruge (LSU Percussion Ensemble).
