Learn MoreOver the course of two decades, Third Coast Percussion has dared to imagine how percussion music is capable of transforming the performing arts landscape.
As part of Third Coast Percussion’s 20th Anniversary celebration, the ensemble is thrilled to embark on collaborative projects with friends old and new. New works in development include:
Sérgio Assad: Third Coast Percussion is excited to collaborate once again with this giant of the classical guitar world, following the success of their 2x GRAMMY® nominated Archetypes program.
Musekiwa Chingodza: The renowned Zimbabwean mbira master reunites with Third Coast Percussion for a new work, to be performed by the quartet alone or side-by-side with the master himself.
Dame Evelyn Glennie: A pioneer in the world of percussion performance, Dame Evelyn Glennie is one of the most eclectic and innovative artists working today. TCP is honored to collaborate with her to develop a new work for percussion soloist and percussion quartet.
Augusta Read Thomas: Longtime friend and collaborator Augusta Read Thomas is one of the most transformative collaborators in TCP’s twenty-year history. Her newest work for the ensemble is inspired by birds: birdsong, migration, flocking patterns, and the many roles they play as pollinators, scavengers, seed dispersers, predators, and ecosystem engineers.
