The Grammy-winning ensemble So Percussion will play the music of composer Steve Reich at Princeton United Methodist Church on Thursday, July 17 at 7 p.m. Also on the program, which is presented by Altamura Legacy Concerts, are pianist Cristina Altamura and percussionist Adam Sliwinski, playing music for percussion and piano.

The concert marks the fourth collaboration between Legacy Arts International and the So Percussion Summer Institute.

“This summer I’m particularly excited to present So Percussion performing Steve Reich’s Music for Pieces of Wood and Drumming Part 1 on the heels of their Grammy win in February 2025,” said Altamura, artistic director. “This is also where I get to perform once a season with my husband Adam Sliwinski in piano and percussion projects that we have been developing over the years.”

So Percussion is made up of Eric Cha-Beach, Josh Quillen, Sliwinski, and Jason Treuting. They are senior lecturers at Princeton University, where they have been Edward T. Cone Performers-in-Residence since 2014. Altamura is a pianist, educator, and presenter. In 2018-19, she created a cultural exchange between the Imola Piano Academy in Italy and the music department at Princeton University.

Admission to the concert is free, with a suggested donation of $35. The church is at Nassau Street and Vandeventer Avenue. Visit legacyartsinternational.org.
