So Percussion (often styled Sō Percussion) is an American percussion quartet based in New York City. Composed of Josh Quillen, Adam Sliwinski, Jason Treuting, and Eric Cha-Beach, the group is well known for recording and touring internationally and for its work with composers such as Steve Reich, David Lang, Paul Lansky, Steven Mackey, Bryce Dessner, Fred Frith, Dan Trueman, Tristan Perich, Martin Bresnick, Oscar Bettison, Evan Ziporyn, and Arvo Pärt. Originally formed when the members were students of Robert van Sice at the Yale School of Music, the group also continues to play works from the standard repertoire of percussion ensemble music—including works by composers such as John Cage, George Crumb, and Iannis Xenakis. In addition to their work with composers, the members of So Percussion produce original music, including large scale evening-length works. The group is also well known for its use of unusual and exotic instruments in performance and on recordings, including glockenspiel, bowed marimba, aluminum pipes and an amplified cactus. So Percussion records for Bang on a Can record label Cantaloupe Music and is represented by Alliance Artist Management. The group endorses Zildjian, Vic Firth, Remo and Pearl/Adams. ==Collaborations== So Percussion frequently collaborates with other musicians and performers from around the world, including Buke and Gase, Dave Douglas, Matmos, Kneebody, Medeski Martin & Wood, Dan Deacon, The Dirty Projectors, Matmos, Glenn Kotche, Bobby Previte, Project Jenny, Project Jan, (Kid Millions/Man Forever ), Eli Keszler, Emily Johnson, Ain Gordon, Shen Wei, and The Princeton Laptop Orchestra. 2015 collaborative projects include the creation with Jad Abumrad of a score to the Radiolab story "(The Heartbeat )," part of the episode "Radiolab Live: Telltale Hearts featuring Oliver Sacks," produced by Molly Webster and performed live by So Percussion at Brooklyn Academy of Music's "RadioLoveFest.".
