Sandbox performs Seven Pillars with the Pittsburgh New Music Ensemble.
The work is structured as a large-scale palindrome and consists of seven ensemble movements and one solo movement for each member of Sandbox Percussion. Michael McQuilken’s lighting scheme reinforces the work’s form throughout the theatrical live-performance.
This evening-length work is the largest-scale chamber music work that Akiho has written and that Sandbox has commissioned. Akiho and Sandbox’s ongoing collaboration for Seven Pillars has spanned the past 8 years.
