"Red bells of Juan Miro" for 4 percussion players was written as a part of the Den Haag Slagwerk work in progress project. The final version of it was performed by Konstantyn Napolov with his ensemble Davai Percussion. For this piece I chose only metal instruments with long sounds. I tried to create an intimate ritual atmosphere full of melodies and rhythms.
