Learn MoreA refreshing blend of contemporary composers and styles
Third Coast Percussion presents a program honoring the tremendous impact of composer Philip Glass on contemporary music. TCP has enjoyed a close and fruitful relationship with Glass, commissioning him to write his first-ever work for percussion ensemble in 2018, featured on this program. As Glass turns 90 in 2027, his unmistakable influence resonates across a vast spectrum of contemporary music creators also included on this program: electronic music producer Jlin, pop polymath Devonté Hynes, TCP’s own David Skidmore, and minimalism master Steve Reich, a contemporary of Glass’s. At the heart of this program are TCP’s acclaimed arrangements of Aguas da Amazonia and Metamorphosis One. These enchanting works bring focus to his gorgeous harmonic vocabulary, performed on an array of traditional and unexpected percussion instruments.
Tour Period: January/February 2027
