Town Music presents: Third Coast Percussion
$10-$25
Called “hard-grooving musicians” by The New York Times, Chicago-based Third Coast Percussion has been recognized for its “superb” (New Yorker) sound, unique take on percussion instrumentation, and integration of new media in performances. (So integrated, that they’ve offered free phone and tablet apps at their performances to enhance audience experience.)
This evening, they’ll perform David Little’s “Haunt of Last Nightfall,” which blends pre-recorded heavy metal sounds with live percussion for a “tender, elegiac, dark, and epic” experience. They’ll also perform other Third Coast Percussion favorites, including John Cage’s “Credo in Us.” The group — Sean Connors, Robert Dillon, Peter Martin and David Skidmore — is Ensemble-in-Residence at University of Notre Dame’s DeBartolo Performing Arts Center, and is known for working closely with new composers and integrating community outreach and workshops on their tours.
Tickets
Adults $20 advance or $25 at the door, $20 seniors, $17 Town Hall members, $10 students. A limited number of $5 day-of-show Teen Tix for those 18 and under also will be available.
Doors open 6:30pm; late seating is not guaranteed.
