Sō at the Royal Conservatory (Toronto)

January 19, 20198:00pm

Redefining the scope and vital role of the modern percussion ensemble, Sō Percussion performs Amid the noise by Jason Treuting alongside works by Vijay Iyer, Caroline Shaw, and Donnacha Dennehy.

Amid the noise is a patient study of musical spaces, using a few meaningful quotes for material and structure. Each piece is made up of a few layers of melody, harmony, drone, noise, and rhythm. Some of the elements are prescribed, but many are left open for the performer to explore.

Program:
Vijay Iyer: TORQUE (Canadian premiere)
Caroline Shaw: Taxidermy (Canadian premiere)
Donnacha Dennehy: Broken Unison (Canadian premiere)
Jason Treuting: Amid the noise (Canadian premiere)

Babe the blue OX and the Schickele Family Denim Review

Sō Laboratories (Our Home In Brooklyn!)
20 Grand Avenue, #205, Brooklyn, New York 11205

Apparently this band has been making new music for 35 years and didn’t bother to tell many people. Why ruin it? Rose, Eddie, Hanna, Tim, Squiggy, Lemmy, Alfalfa they’ll all be there, with brand new ways to cut in song in pieces. Tell Everyone! Cuz it’s free (donation suggested) and there’s a fridge of beer and seltzer!
