Praised for his “excellent” and “precisely attuned” performances by the New York Times, percussionist Ian Rosenbaum has developed a musical breadth far beyond his years. He made his Kennedy Center debut in 2009 and later that year garnered a special prize created for him at the Salzburg International Marimba Competition. Rosenbaum joined the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center in 2012 as only the second percussionist selected in the Society’s history. Memory Palace is an hour-long immersive musical narrative built around Christopher Cerrone’s evocative work of the same name. Through electro-acoustic soundscapes, visual projections, and a fluid juxtaposing of unexpected techniques and found, built, and traditional instruments, works by five American composers are interwoven seamlessly to explore new, expressive possibilities for solo percussion.
