DARE TO DRUM
ASPEN FILM PRESENTS: DARE TO DRUM (2015)
Documentary | 85 MIN
This film speaks to the inherent traits that drummers and percussionists possess as natural explorers of music and sound, and how this story examines the challenge of translating foreign voices of percussive expression into the dialect of a Western classical orchestra. Five accomplished percussionists, Drum, and a rock star composer, Stewart Copeland, come together with the Dallas Symphony Orchestra to create a groundbreaking work.
Join Aspen Film and the Aspen Music Festival & School on August 17 as they go beyond the beat with DARE TO DRUM, an inspiring exploration of the creativity, curiosity, and passion that drive drummers and percussionists, followed by a post-screening conversation with Stewart Copeland.
