Kickin' It 2.0

Kickin" It 2.0 was written by Ho after a request from Dame Evelyn Glennie. While there are some structural differences between this version and the original Kickin" It (PE168), the drum kit part is essentially the same, and the piano is similar except for some material in the second half of the fourth movement. The added strings augment the textures and sonic palette of the original version by punctuating the drum kit's unpredictable accents, interweaving shrieking glissandi lines, and conjuring eerie atmospherics with glassy tremolo bowing.
