I love when Andriessen leaves big weird empty spaces in the middle of the more intimate small moments. Also the more energetic sections are giving "the tap dancer's legs aren't the same length" and it's very fun.

Hearin Señor Blues like that, is so wild. I dig it.

Great! thank you!

Molto interessante, ben fatto, ottima ritmica, mi piace molto 👍👍👍😁😁😁

when it says "tap table", what instrument does it mean by that? just a bit confused by that

It seems left open to the percussionist, just something to imitate tap dance sounds. One of the performance reviews says "tap sounds with sticks and thimbles on a wooden plank".

​@@Cmaj7indeed, I was also wondering if this involved a dancer or not? Or is tapdance basically someone miming on percussive sounds? I believe btw, that Michael Torke has also a 'tapdance' concerto, not sure how this is performed as well.

Kinda just feels random I dunno. I would've just preferred a concerto for a tapdancer rather than something that switches around a lot. Some of the marimba writing was nice

Some very clever writting in there - but as a percussionist, I wouldn't want to play it.
