PiE present the LA Percussion Quartet
The Los Angeles Percussion Quartet is an innovative and dynamic chamber music ensemble whose unique 20th and 21st century repertoire has been called "sublime, visceral, exotic...and aurally stunning". Entering their fourth concert season, they have pioneered a reputation for creating cutting-edge collaborative projects, commissioning award-winning compositions, recording groundbreaking albums, and delivering educational master classes at leading music conservatories. In 2012, Ripa- khandha became the quartet's first major label release by Sono Luminus records, and is regarded as the first 7.1 surround-sound recording of percussion chamber music. The LAPQ has appeared in many of California's distinguished concert series, including Monday Evening Concerts, Music and Conversations, Morrison Artists, April in Santa Cruz, and the L.A. Composers Project. The four members (Matthew Cook, Justin DeHart, Eric Guinivan, and Nick Terry), have trained at leading music conservatories, including Indiana University Bloomington, UC San Diego, Oberlin Conservatory, University of Southern California, and the California Institute of the Arts.
