Part of Hancher's 52nd Season

Featuring a Hancher co-commission

It's a superstar team-up as a Hancher-favorite ensemble is joined by our composer-in-residence. 

The second opportunity of the season to experience Third Coast Percussion (performs with Twyla Tharp Dance) and Jessie Montgomery (performs with PUBLIQuartet), and our 2024–2025 composer-in-residence. The dynamic program showcases Montgomery's enviable excellence as a visionary creator and virtuosic performer.
