Third Coast Percussion: Virtuosity and Subtlety

One of the most significant musical ensembles of our time, Third Coast Percussion devotes themselves to key works of the repertoire with a deep sense of pure virtuosity and musical care and subtlety, while avoiding the all too often felt and heard “noise-factor” experienced with some percussion groups. A deep sense of care and transparency is attached to a true sense of “groove” in a way that few ensembles achieve. Mode Records will release what I think will be one of THE significant Cage CD/DVD packages of the music of John Cage, and the result will be a recording of highly influential playing that defines and makes accessible, these seminal works by Cage. Hearing groups like Third Coast Percussion play Cage sparks the imagination and stimulates the senses. Filled with a world of color and brilliance and pure beauty, Third Coast brings pure elegance to to this music. View a small sample of the Video here
