With “an exhilarating blend of precision and anarchy, rigor and bedlam,” Sō Percussion “has set the New York standard for percussion innovation” (The New Yorker). In this program of premieres by leading American musical innovators, the ensemble celebrates the bi-directional impact of popular genres like jazz, tap, hip-hop, rock, and disco on concert music and experimental composition. Bryce Dessner (The National) reintroduces the electric guitar-like “chord stick” that he invented for Sō Percussion. Pulitzer Prize winner Caroline Shaw writes a new percussion quartet, the next chapter in a multiple Grammy-winning collaboration that includes 2025’s Best Chamber Music / Small Ensemble Performance. Michael J. Love’s virtuosic tap dance transforms the group into an interdisciplinary percussion quintet. Kendall K. Williams imports Trinidad and Tobago’s high-octane “Panorama” style for a new quartet with marimbas and vibraphone.
