Michael performs nationally and internationally with Mantra Percussion, Skogensemble, and Hi Red Center; he also works as a freelance percussionist in New York City and performs at festivals throughout North America including the Society of Composers, SEAMUS, the Electronic Music Midwest Festival, the Sparks Festival of Electronic Music, the Bang on a Can Marathon and the Festival of New American Music. Michael is a champion of new music — commissioning, premiering and recording works by established composers such as Michael Gordon, Gavin Bryars, Richard Felciano, Michael Fiday, Annie Gosfield, Karen Tanaka, and Ushio Torikai. Michael has also developed relationships with many young composers to commission and perform new works. Most of these collaborations have blended music with dance, and music with text and theatre — many of these efforts have combined music with electronics or interactive computer. Along with renowned percussion ensemble Slagwerkgroep Den Haag and dance ensemble Club Guy & Roni in the Netherlands, Michael, with Mantra Percussion, commissioned the percussion sextet Timber, an evening-length work for six 2x4s by Michael Gordon. Mantra will premiere Timber in October 2011 and tour the work throughout the US, Canada, and Mexico. Michael completed a doctorate in percussion performance at the State University of New York at Stony Brook. His teachers over his career have included Nick Petrella, Steve Schick, Dan Kennedy, Raymond DesRoches, and Eduardo Leandro. Michael is endorsed by Sabian cymbals. Michael is the executive director of Red Poppy Music, publishing and promoting the compositions of Bang On A Can co-founders Michael Gordon, David Lang and Julia Wolfe.
