Flannau Duo + Matchstick Percussion

Join us for an exhilarating evening of musical exploration as we present two sensational acts that redefine the boundaries of contemporary sound.

Kicking off the night, we welcome Matchstick Percussion, a Maryland-based quartet on a mission to ignite the world of percussion with their passion for new music. Consisting of Ben Hausman, Corey Sittinger, Malcolm Taylor, and Zachary Bud Wilson, Matchstick Percussion's "Strike Anywhere" Initiative aims to broaden the percussion repertoire by incorporating more inclusive and accessible instrumentation, breaking free from the constraints of traditional academic venues.

Following their electrifying performance, we have The Flannau Duo, a dynamic force of innovation and artistry. Comprised of Jonathan Hannau on piano and Kyle Flens on percussion, this duo pushes the envelope with their eclectic blend of piano, percussion, electronics, improvisation, and absurdism. With their fearless approach to music-making, The Flannau Duo promises an unforgettable experience that will leave you both enthralled and exhilarated.

Prepare to be transported on a sonic journey as these two extraordinary ensembles take the stage and push the boundaries of musical expression.
