Grammy Award winners Third Coast Percussion (TCP), the center's ensemble-in-residence from 2013 to 2018 and also celebrating its 20th anniversary, perform with acclaimed Grammy Award-winning composer, violinist, and educator Jessie Montgomery. Montgomery, who has received the Leonard Bernstein Award from the ASCAP Foundation and the Sphinx Medal of Excellence, is known for her works that blend classical music with elements of vernacular music, improvisation, poetry, and social consciousness. Her music is widely performed by leading musicians and ensembles worldwide, making her a significant interpreter of 21st-century American sound and experience.
The recital will showcase Montgomery's talents as a composer and a violinist and feature a new percussion quartet composition commissioned by TCP, which explores various sounds and characters using a compact percussion setup. This piece will be paired with Lou Harrison's "Concerto for Violin with Percussion Orchestra," drawing inspiration from the lively sounds of Javanese gamelan. Join us in welcoming Sean Connors, Robert Dillon, Peter Martin, David Skidmore, and Jessie Montgomery as they redefine the classical music experience.
