ABOUT THE PIECE:
Extremes was composed by Jason Treuting, member of So Percussion, and is part of a larger, evening length work called Imaginary City. Jason is fascinated with patterns that are found in language, and the usage of words as a platform for form and rhythmic structure. For example, certain rhythmic values may be assigned to consonants and vowels to form different grooves. In the case of Extremes, a series of cities in the United States are used to compose the form and rhythmic structure. These cities are grouped together in different ways to create a four-part canon. This canon results in a highly intricate composite groove within the ensemble.
As in much of Jason's music, there is limited conventional notation, but rather a series of processes to be followed. These processes can be used as a tool for understanding how the piece was conceived as well as how each performer can add his or her own ideas and variations.
Though understanding how the rhythms are composed is rather simple, how they are organized to create the form is very complex. Sandbox Percussion member, Victor Caccese spent a great deal of time working with Jason to compile a complete score for Extremes. This score utilizes both conventional notation as well as a thorough explanation of Jason's unique compositional process. This will help the performer fully understand how the piece is played and how new interesting ideas can arise from Jason's original intention. Victor's score for Extremes is available for purchase at www.goodchildmusic.com

ABOUT THE PERFORMERS:
Brought together by their love of chamber music and the simple joy of playing together, Sandbox Percussion captivates audiences with performances that are both visually and aurally stunning. Through compelling collaborations with composers and performers, Jonathan Allen, Victor Caccese, Ian Rosenbaum and Terry Sweeney seek to engage a wider audience for classical music.
Sandbox made their New York debut in 2012 on the Concerts on the Slope series in Brooklyn. Following that performance, they accepted an invitation to become artists-in-residence of the series and have returned in each subsequent season. Later that year, Sandbox worked closely with composer James Wood on his masterpiece Village Burial with Fire at the Norfolk Chamber Music Festival. While at Norfolk, Sandbox played alongside the great Hungarian percussion quartet Amadinda - Aurél Holló, a member of Amadinda, later said about Sandbox: "With an array of skills, talent and freshness, these young artists seem to be pushing their limits up in the skies, as I realized listening to them at the Yale Summer School of Music. Sandbox Percussion is the promising group of the near future, battering right on your door."

Vic Firth - I really dig that you are showing many different types of performers and ensembles in the drum/percussion world. You never know what will inspire. Well done.
Damn, those were some really crazy polyrhythmics! Metal as hell! :D Great vid!
I can hear some modern EDM idioms here, very cool. Love the prepared bass drum.
What prepared bass?
I don't even know how to comprehend this amazingness I have now witnessed
This piece does not require four percussionists.
It requires two right-handed percussionists and two left-handed percussionists.
