No?<\/p>\n<p>Well, members of the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga Percussion Ensemble know what they are.<\/p>\n<p>Crotales are small, disc-shaped cymbals, each tuned to a different note, and their origins may date back to ancient Greece, Rome and Egypt. During the Beat Hunger concert on Nov. 20 at UTC, three members of the Percussion Ensemble played the instruments for a piece titled \u201cShui.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The students performing the piece were Trevor Kight, a junior majoring in mechatronics, and Roland Pullen and Ian Villarubia, both freshmen in music education.<\/p>\n<p>Written by composer Juri Seo, the piece uses crotales and a bowl of water to create music that Seo describes as \u201ca miniaturized version of an extended musical meditation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe circular shape of the instrument, the round bowl and the long resonance are all conducive to meditative environment,\u201d Seo wrote. \u201cAs in any ensemble music\u2014perhaps more palpable in this case\u2014the performers are indispensable parts of the whole.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Professor Ethan McDaniel, director of the Percussion Ensemble, said he was familiar with Seo&#8217;s work, &#8220;but had never heard this particular piece before.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Every concert I try to program pieces by underrepresented composers, and not very many people know about Juri Seo\u2019s works,&#8221; he said. &#8220;I also try to program a variety of pieces to expose the students to different types of music making. Usually on our concerts you will hear a historical piece, one or two standard percussion ensemble pieces, an easy-listening piece and a contemporary piece.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h4>Photos by Sam Blevins<\/h4>\n<div id=\"attachment_55617\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" ><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"880\" height=\"495\" data-attachment-id=\"55617\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/blog.utc.edu\/news\/2023\/11\/unusual-instrument-played-during-utc-percussion-ensembles-beat-hunger-concert\/water-music-1\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.utc.edu\/app\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2023\/11\/Water-Music-1.png?fit=1280%2C720&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1280,720\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-title=\"Water Music 1\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.utc.edu\/app\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2023\/11\/Water-Music-1.png?fit=880%2C495&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"wp-image-55617 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.utc.edu\/app\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2023\/11\/Water-Music-1.png?resize=880%2C495\" alt=\"From left: Trevor Kight, Roland Pullen and Ian Villarubia\" style=\"max-width: 100%;\"style=\"max-width: 100%;\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.utc.edu\/app\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2023\/11\/Water-Music-1.png?w=1280&amp;ssl=1 1280w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.utc.edu\/app\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2023\/11\/Water-Music-1.png?resize=1024%2C576&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.utc.edu\/app\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2023\/11\/Water-Music-1.png?resize=768%2C432&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.utc.edu\/app\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2023\/11\/Water-Music-1.png?resize=800%2C450&amp;ssl=1 800w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.utc.edu\/app\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2023\/11\/Water-Music-1.png?resize=580%2C326&amp;ssl=1 580w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.utc.edu\/app\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2023\/11\/Water-Music-1.png?resize=610%2C343&amp;ssl=1 610w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.utc.edu\/app\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2023\/11\/Water-Music-1.png?resize=1536%2C864&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.utc.edu\/app\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2023\/11\/Water-Music-1.png?resize=2048%2C1152&amp;ssl=1 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 880px) 100vw, 880px\" \/><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">From left: Trevor Kight, Roland Pullen and Ian Villarubia<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"tiled-gallery type-rectangular tiled-gallery-unresized\" data-original-width=\"880\" data-carousel-extra='{&quot;blog_id&quot;:9,&quot;permalink&quot;:&quot;https:\\\/\\\/blog.utc.edu\\\/news\\\/2023\\\/11\\\/unusual-instrument-played-during-utc-percussion-ensembles-beat-hunger-concert\\\/&quot;,&quot;likes_blog_id&quot;:202990556}' itemscope itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/ImageGallery\" > <div class=\"gallery-row\" style=\"width: 880px;
