Two ensembles that are redefining classical music for the 21st century join forces for a special double bill performance. Flutronix (critically acclaimed flutists and composers Nathalie Joachim and Allison Loggins-Hull) and the GRAMMY® Award-winning Third Coast Percussion (Sean Connors, Robert Dillon, Peter Martin, David Skidmore) collaboratively composed a new work called Rubix, inspired by musical games that tie the sound worlds of these performers and composers together.

The program features solo sets by each ensemble in addition to their new co-created work.

The day after the concert, Third Coast and the Modlin Center will present a FREE drum circle open to the public at Gallery 5 Arts. Explorations will include specific rhythm patterns, improvisation, and ways to make music as a collaborative ensemble. No music experience is necessary, and all experience levels are welcome. Bring your own drum. A limited supply of instruments will be made available. More info and RSVP here.
