Percussion All-Stars
Returning for their third year as a Mason Artist-in-Residence, Silkroad Ensemble presents Percussion All-Stars, showcasing virtuoso performances by the elite group of percussionists within the ensemble. Through story, rhythm, and melody, experience a rich tapestry of music traditions from around the world, including India, Africa, Japan, Cuba, the Middle East, and the Americas. The performance will feature several original compositions by members of the Silkroad Ensemble, including Sandeep Das (India), Kaoru Watanabe (Japan), Haruka Fujii (Japan), and Balla Kouyate (Mali), and include commissions by celebrated composers Steve Reich and Caroline Shaw.
