About Escargot
Description
The spiraling shape of a snail’s shell serves as the structural framework for Louis Falco’s Escargot. Ralph MacDonald’s rhythmic, highly percussive score is highlighted by African chanting and provides an excellent backdrop for Mr. Falco’s energetic, free-flowing, spontaneous style.
