Indie classical meets indie rock when eighth blackbird collaborates with Glenn Kotche, drummer and percussionist of the Chicago-based rock band Wilco. Heralded by the Chicago Tribune for his “unfailing taste, technique and discipline,” Kotche’s eclectic performances and original compositions have explored the creative use of rhythm and space through various percussion projects over the past two decades. The show will feature works from Kotche’s album “Mobile” performed by the percussionist and eighth blackbird, a solo set by Kotche, and other works including Dutch composer Louis Andriessen’s pedal-to-the-metal Worker’s Union.
