GRAMMY® Award-winning Third Coast Percussion invites curious listeners on a musical journey that will surprise, delight, and disrupt everything you thought you knew about percussion! This intimate program showcases the infinite range of what percussion music can do: from gorgeous melodies to driving drums–and everything in between.

This performance will feature new compositions by JaRon Brown and Robert Dillon.

This event is currently sold out. Please visit the Nova Linea website for more information.

Please note: At 5:45pm, Doyle Armbrust will host a pre-concert talk with a member of TCP in Polk Hall (adjacent to Gottlieb Hall).
After the show, join us for a reception with the artists.
