In the Fire of Conflict (Solo Percussion) [CF:PE108]

In the Fire of Conflict is named after the theme for the 2008 Toronto Summer Music Festival for which it was composed. Set in two continuous movements, the live percussion part is performed with the rap music in the digital audio part, sourced from American rapper Steve Henry a.k.a. "Bugsy H.", of the Christian rap group Poetik Disciples. The live percussion weaves constantly around the rap lyrics, often drawing melodic contours from the prosodic contours of the spoken text.
