About

Xenakis transports you to the cosmos in Pléïades, a sextet featuring the sixxen—an instrument the composer created specifically for the piece. From Glockenspiels to metal pipes, Andy Akiho pairs new sounds with unusual instruments in 7 Pillars. NWS alum Sergio Carreno returns to join the Fellows for this all-percussion concert.
