Cue of the Week: “Escaping the Country”

This week’s cue offers some orchestral action/suspense writing for a daring escape scene involving airplanes, armed thugs, and, of course, tax auditors. That shaker you hear at the opening isn’t your everyday percussion instrument, but a South American caxixi – essentially a tiny woven basket filled with seeds. Acoustically, this rare instrument can be described as sounding almost exactly like a shaker.
