Crossing 32nd Street performs Omónoia, by Jeremy Muller, for percussion quartet. This work combines certain constellations, listed by Ptolemy, that are mapped as musical material and visual stimuli. The purpose is to create a graphic score that can be read in any direction. Additionally, the performers participate in creating the score by matching up portions to make a map for performance. Performers use a wide range of implements to create various timbres while occasionally returning to the conventional method of playing the instrument. This piece demonstrates the importance of perspective and how vastly different interpretations can arise from the same material.

Performers are: Rob Esler, Doug Nottingham, Brett Reed, & Lisa Tolentino.
