SO Brooklyn

Evening Music | May 6, 2010

One of the most exciting percussion groups to hit the scene is So Percussion, a dynamic quartet that has been appealing to a wide public since 1999. These guys have the formula down to a science: instantly compelling music plus edgy innovation equals fresh new sound. Based in Brooklyn, So Percussion will perform anything from standard selections to their original compositions, often including exotic and unusual instruments. One member of the group, Jason Treuting, wrote the music for their album Amid the Noise, and tonight we'll be hearing March. Also, music from Jean Sibelius and Edward MacDowell.
