Featuring choreography by Movement Art Is (Lil Buck and Jon Boogz)

Performed and interpreted by Trent Jeray and Cameron Murphy

Third Coast Percussion joines forces with the groundbreaking choreography and movement of Movement Art Is (Lil Buck and Jon Boogz) for an intimate, evening-length program that explores the duality of human nature. At once intensely personal and fiercely virtuosic, two disparate styles of street dance blend seamlessly with new music by Jlin and Tyondai Braxton, as well as Third Coast Percussion’s critically-acclaimed arrangements of Philip Glass’s Aguas da Amazonia.
