Geelhoed's blog entry
"The night however, belonged to percussionist David Skidmore.
Opening the concert with Steve Mackey's "Micro-Concerto",
Skidmore showed off his virtuosic technical skills and musicality."

"Impressive solo percussion performances framed the Pittsburgh New Music Ensemble's concerts on Friday and Saturday at City Theatre, South Side.
"David Skidmore's energy, versatility and hand independence
brought "Rebonds" by Iannis Xenakis to life to open a
program devoted to "The Traveler". "?Corporel"
by Vinko Globukar was the harrowing conclusion to the journey, a
piece of performance art in which the perfromer uses body percussion
to portray a tortured soul. I winced when Skidmore hit his skull
with his knuckes so loudly the sound was clear 75 feet away."
