For over a decade, S? Percussion has redefined the modern percussion ensemble as a flexible, omnivorous entity, pushing its voice to the forefront of American musical culture. They return to Texas Performing Arts with two distinct programs.

Praised by The New Yorker for their “exhilarating blend of precision and anarchy, rigor and bedlam,” S?’s adventurous spirit is written into the DNA passed down from composers like John Cage and Steve Reich, as well as from pioneering ensembles like the Kronos Quartet and Nexus Percussion. S? Percussion’s career now encompasses 13 albums, touring throughout the United States and around the world, a dizzying array of collaborative projects, several ambitious educational programs, and a steady output of their own music.

S? Percussion’s March 11 program includes the world premiere of a Texas Performing Arts co-commissioned new work by Steven Mackey. It will feature guest vocalist Shara Worden, who is lead singer and songwriter for the experimental pop band My Brightest Diamond. The following evening, S? Percussion performs Steve Reich’s 1971 breakthrough masterpiece Drumming, with the UT Percussion Ensemble and guest vocalists, directed by Tom Burritt.
