Third Coast Percussion has created this program to reflect on the passage of time and the profound influence that percussion music has on classical music today. Not only do the composers featured in this program each bring a singular and innovative approach to rhythm and time to their music, but each work is also imbued with a connection to the past: be it nostalgia, timeless legends and myths, or the influence of past musical luminaries on the music of today. The program features new music by some of today’s leading composers from a variety of genres, including Jessie Montgomery, jazz pianist Tigran Hamasyan, and electronic artist Jlin. Unbound by the classical traditions of other instruments, percussion invites music creators from any background to forge a new classical music that is vibrant, inclusive, and focused on the future.
