Architek Percussion takes audiences on a multisensory journey, March 29

Viewers will feel the instruments’ sounds reverberate throughout their body

Music on Main presents Architek Percussion at Heritage Hall on March 29 at 7:30 pm

ARCHITEK PERCUSSION IS a groundbreaking group out of Montreal that’s often described as electrifying. Musicians Noam Bierstone, Ben Duinker, Alexander Haupt, and Ben Reimer will be taking local audiences on a musical ride when the ensemble performs at Music on Main’s first in-person event of the spring season.

Audiences will be guided from one side of the room to the other between performances, allowing for a change in perspective and setting while the concert is filmed live. People will literally be able to feel the percussion reverberate through their body while surrounded by a mix of delicate sounds and contrasting rhythms.

Also happening: Sabrina Schroeder, Music on Main’s composer in residence, will present the world premiere of Stircrazer I.
