Music: Classical So Percussion w/ Kneebody

  • Sopercussion_large

In last summer's Lincoln Center performance, avant-garde rhythm evangelists So Percussion made neat work of a pile of garden pots, the group's bangs and clangs mercilessly reducing the ceramics to rubble. This was after each of the ensemble's members had shotgunned a beer, of course — the final preparation before the tallboys were used for a can-based composition. So Percussion's off-kilter approach to performance is inarguably arty; however, the group is far from gallery-opening frou-frou. Rather, its bizarrely orchestrated works are rife with humor and a funky, rhythmic tone that brings listeners to cautiously, artfully dance.
