Arizona Philharmonic’s timpanist Maria Flurry and principal percussionist Eddie Solomon, alongside their esteemed colleagues Joshua Ferrell and Benson Kwan, bring this year’s Manos percussion ensemble to life. They artfully blend the timbres of wood, metal, skin, and water, captivating audiences with a program that spans the playful vigor of jazz to the structured elegance of Baroque. Embracing everything from the grooves of Afro-Cuban rhythms to the sublime melancholy of Chopin, their performance is a dynamic journey through the wealth of musical possibilities percussion offers. With an essence of fun and the depth of virtuosity, this quartet promises a concert experience that's as delightfully entertaining as it is profoundly moving.
