Explore a distinguished composer’s unique works for percussion quartet, piano, and mezzo-soprano.

Join the Grammy-winning quartet Sandbox Percussion, pianist Conor Hanick, and mezzo-soprano Elspeth Davis for an immersive sound portrait of composer Christopher Cerrone. Experience the wide-ranging sounds of Don’t Look Down, an “accidental diary” of the COVID-19 pandemic that pairs a prepared piano—where bolts, mutes, and other objects alter the instrument’s strings—with both traditional percussion and found objects. Don’t miss this bold testament to the power of music and collaboration, plus more works by Cerrone that explore space, sound, and rhythm, set in The Met’s grand Charles Engelhard Court in the American Wing.
