Caroline Shaw & Sō Percussion Let the Soil Play its Simple Part (UK premiere)

For twenty years and counting, Sō Percussion has redefined chamber music for the 21st century through an “exhilarating blend of precision and anarchy, rigor and bedlam” (The New Yorker). They are celebrated by audiences and presenters for a dazzling range of work: for live performances in which “telepathic powers of communication” (The New York Times) bring to life the vibrant percussion repertoire; for an extravagant array of collaborations in classical music, pop, indie rock, contemporary dance, and theatre; and for their work in education and community, creating opportunities and platforms for music and artists that explore the immense possibility of art in our time.

They will be performing with Pulitzer Prize-winner Caroline Shaw, a musician who moves among roles, genres, and mediums, trying to imagine a world of sound that has never been heard before but has always existed. Sō Percussion & Caroline Shaw’s show at Norfolk & Norwich Festival will be the UK premiere of their collaborative album, Let the Soil Play its Simple Part.

Arts make life better

Norfolk & Norwich Festival brings tens of thousands of people together in celebration – it has been doing this for 250 years. Through our May Festival and our year-round arts education work, focusing on children and young people, we lead and support celebration, creativity and curiosity in communities across Norfolk and the region.

This year we begin an exciting new initiative, Festival Connect & Create that will bring creative opportunities to those schools and communities with least provision. Creativity transforms people’s lives. It builds cohesive communities, develops vital skills and supports health and wellbeing. We want more people to have access to creative opportunities.

Please consider donating to support and develop this work. With your help we can increase access to the life changing power of the arts.
