Hohner by David Maslanka is a powerful tribute to legendary percussion educator Bob Hohner.

Maslanka (1943–2017) was one of the most influential American composers for winds and percussion, known for music that blends spiritual depth, radiant sonority, and profound emotional honesty.

Rather than mourning, Hohner breathes.

Resonant metals shimmer, deep drums pulse, and time seems to stretch into something almost sacred. Through waves of color and stillness, Maslanka honors a legacy built on sound, community, and spirit.

A massive percussion ensemble becomes a single voice — remembering, listening, and continuing forward.

✨ Anima – Theodore Wiprud
Stasis and motion. Weight and weightlessness. Pulse and impulse.
Anima explores the charged space between stillness and movement, where resonant bells suspend time and rhythmic energy takes flight. From immovable downbeats to shimmering textures of metal and skin, the music transforms reverberation into motion—filling silence with pulse, color, and intensity.
Written for advanced percussion ensemble, Anima has been performed by leading university and professional groups including Talujon, Queens College, Brooklyn College, University of Oregon, Purchase College, and more.
🎶 A powerful, immersive work for adventurous ensembles.
