Speak Percussion has redefined the sound and scope of percussion in the twenty-first century. Now, after a quarter-century of avant-garde, boundary-defying experimentation, the ³Ô¹ÏÍø-based organisation marks its anniversary with a major exhibition at the University of ³Ô¹Ï꿉۪s Grainger Museum.
Silent Hand Catches Silver Bell showcases the ensemble’s visionary scope and features contributions from leading voices in contemporary music and performance. Encounter custom-built instruments, striking installations, and archival materials that reveal the scale and audacity of Speak Percussion’s practice, and gain a rare insight into the ensemble’s post-instrumental approach.
Explore the sounds, images, and ideas that have shaped Speak Percussion’s evolution into one of the world’s most innovative musical forces.
