Sō Percussion plays Williams, Tarpaga & Eastman

Sat   Mar   28   2026 - 12:30 PM The Greyhound

For 25 years and counting, Grammy-winning percussion quartet Sō Percussion has redefined chamber music for the 21st century through an “exhilarating blend of precision and anarchy, rigor and bedlam” (The New Yorker). They are celebrated by audiences and presenters for a dazzling range of work: for live performances in which “telepathic powers of communication” (The New York Times) bring to life the vibrant percussion repertoire; for an extravagant array of collaborations in classical music, pop, indie rock, contemporary dance, and theater; and for their work in education and community-building, seeking to explore the immense possibility of art in our time. Sō Percussion is Jason Treuting, Adam Sliwinski, Josh Quillen, and Eric Cha-Beach.

For this performance Sō Percussion will perform the following:

Kendall K Williams’ Panorama for Mallet Quartet

Olivier Tarpaga’s Tarpaga’s Four in Three and Dusty Road to Dolo from FēFē

Julius Eastman’s Stay on It.
