Robin Engelman, former member of Nexus, Canada,

Just before we left for Finland, I was finally able to meet Einar Nielsen, the interesting and ebullient percussionist who played Maurizio Kagel’s “Faites votre jeu I/II” from “Sonant”, during the Stockholm Days of Percussion hosted by Kroumata in 1998. Einar’s performance had impressed me deeply and I had promised myself that I would do everything possible to meet him if I ever returned to Sweden. As arranged, Einar brought a score for the work and, over a light repast in a local restaurant, graciously  explained to me how he’d played the piece.
