Percussion! is a 1959 Urania Records release featuring four mid-century American and American-influenced composers writing for percussion ensemble. The disc collects works by George Antheil, Ronald LoPresti, Carlos Chávez, and Alan Hovhaness, each bringing a distinct modernist approach to rhythm and timbre. Chávez's Toccata for Percussion Instruments is likely the most recognized piece here, a demanding work originally written in 1942 that helped establish the percussion ensemble as a serious concert medium. Hovhaness and Antheil round out a program that sits at the intersection of avant-garde experimentation and mid-century American concert music.
