"Because the Cirque du Soleil uses no language, the music becomes the international language," offers Oberacker. "We look for sounds that function on a primitive level -- the energy level at which our percussion plays will do something to your body that a simple drum roll and smash can't do.
"While all the aspects of the Cirque interact constantly -- hopefully in perfect timing -- the music is one of the constants that never goes away," he insists.
