Taking Note - Sandbox Percussion

A profile of Sandbox Percussion, winner of a 2024 Avery Fisher Career Grant Award.

After meeting in graduate school in 2011, members Terry Sweeney, Jonny Allen, Victor Caccese, and Ian Rosenbaum created Sandbox Percussion. The chamber percussion group chose their name as a reference to a playful and dedicated space for creativity. Using a diverse range of instruments including homemade steel pipes, the group performs “Pillar V” by contemporary composer Andy Akiho.
