Concert in Vienna.
Since the age of 14 Even has performed solo pieces for percussion in multiple events, happenings and concerts. In recent years Even has explored both the use of light, scenery and video on display as visual effects to expand the overall experience of his performances. Expanding from starting with solo repertoire for mostly snare drum, Even has now developed a wide knowledge and experience in performing solo repertoire on multiple Percussion instruments, such as Timpani, Xylophone, Marimba, Vibraphone, Tambourine, Castanets and Multi-Setup Percussion.
