Third Coast Percussion members Owen Clayton Condon, Robert Dillon, Peter Martin, and David Skidmore dazzled Rush Hour audience members with a dynamic presentation of contemporary percussion music on Tuesday. Beginning with Nico Muhly’s arresting Ta and Clap, the quartet was joined by Constance Schoepflin, flute, for George Crumb’s An Idyll for the Misbegotten and ended with quartet member David Skidmore’s composition In Contact.

In addition to the unique musical presentation, concertgoers enjoyed refreshments generously provided by Trader Joe’s at the pre-concert reception.

Thank you, Trader Joe’s!
