"the crowd
went from
supportive to frenzied as Kit Chatham and David Ellis engaged in a
friendly drum-off"
"snare drum sorcery"
"astounding speed,
beats that drum like a rented mule"
"a bravura display of
musicianship, showmanship and one-up-manship - especially when Nicholas
Angelis and Christopher Chatham square off on the drums.
Tuesday's audience could barely contain itself, jumping to its feet on
three separate
occasions to applaud the pair."
"the talent is far
and away the highlight of the evening, most notably the frenetically
charismatic drum
soloists Nicholas Angelis and Christopher Chatham, who
score with a
phenomenal series of
dueling drum solos."
