Knocking Piece II - Ben Johnston Knocking Piece II is a continuation of Knocking Piece I. In both pieces, Johnston calls to demonstrates unconventional methods of playing conventional instruments. In Knocking Piece II, percussionists use bouncy balls, brushes on their playing surfaces as they also use a deck of cards for instructions. The instrumentation of Knocking Piece II is undefined, and there are various symbols represent different actions. For example, “X” signifies super balls, which are the bouncy balls that are used to play the playing surface. Seven percussionists and one sound technician fulfill their duties according to the playing cards’ instructions.
