Sandbox Percussion will join UA in Guzzetta Recital Hall as part of the Kulas Concert Series on March 28, 2023 at 7:30 p.m.
Described as “exhilarating” by The New York Times, and “utterly mesmerizing” by The Guardian, Grammy®-nominated ensemble Sandbox Percussion has established themselves as a leading proponent of contemporary percussion chamber music. In collaboration with Tuesday Musical and Miller South School for the Visual and Performing Arts.
Sandbox Percussion’s 2021 album Seven Pillars was nominated for two GRAMMY® awards – Best Chamber Music/Small Ensemble Performance and Best Contemporary Classical Composition. This evening-length work by Andy Akiho with stage direction and lighting design by Michael Joseph McQuilken is Sandbox’s largest commission to date.
In addition to the album, Sandbox commissioned 11 films that accompany each movement of the work.
