James MacMillan on his Percussion Concerto No.2
On 7 November 2014 the Dutch Radio Philharmonic Orchestra played the world premiere of Percussion Concerto No.2 that the Scottish composer James MacMillan had written at the request of percussionist Colin Currie. The first performance took place in AVROTROSVrijdagconcert on the occasion of the reopening of TivoliVredenburg Utrecht, and was broadcast live on the classical music station Radio 4.
I shortly spoke with Currie and MacMillan; I had earlier interviewed the composer for a written article that you can read here.
