Between Breaths
Between Breaths builds on the success of the ensemble’s 2022 album Perspectives, which was hailed by NPR as "pushing percussion in new directions, blurring musical boundaries and beguiling new listeners,” and was nominated for a 2023 GRAMMY® Award. Exploring the myriad ways that classical music is being created today, Perspectives features four new works written for – and with – Third Coast Percussion by Danny Elfman, Philip Glass, Jlin, and Flutronix. Third Coast Percussion tours the program this season to the Windgate Center for the Performing Arts at the University of Central Arkansas (Sept. 21); Heindl Center for the Performing Arts at Northwest Mississippi Community College (Oct. 2); UCLA's Center for the Art of Performance (Apr. 5); Montalvo Arts Center (Apr. 10); and Friends of Chamber Music Troy (Apr. 25). The Friends of Chamber Music Troy residency will also include an outdoor community performance of Terry Riley’s In C.
