From pioneering percussion works by Varèse, Cage, and Reich to 21st-century music written expressly for this visionary ensemble, Sō Percussion takes you on a fascinating journey as only they can. “Through a mix of consummate skill and quirky charm, this mercurial quartet has helped ignite an explosive new enthusiasm for percussion music old and new” (The New York Times). Keep your enthusiasm blazing or kindle a new passion for this exciting music.
