Schick reflects on the rich history of contemporary music at the University of Iowa. Alongside this rumination, he'll play virtuosic solo percussion pieces that received early and important performances here in Iowa City.
The legacy of contemporary music at the University of Iowa is a rich one.

Repertoire to include Karlheinz Stockhausen’s Zyklus, David Lang’s The Anvil Chorus and Iannis Xenakis’s Psappha.
