So Percussion [Eric Chabeech, Josh Quillen, Adam Sliwinski, and Jason Treating] is an up-and-coming Brooklyn percussion quartet whose group name "So" is taken from the Japanese word for "playing," and in addition to the usual percussion instruments, they also play ceramic In addition to the usual percussion instruments, the group also plays with ceramic bowls, flowerpots, humming instruments, and other objects that can be struck. For this album, Caroline Shaw, Eric Czabich, and Adam Sliwinski found a group of 19th-century poems that shaped the album's appropriate mode of expression, ultimately Christina Rosetti, Emily Bronte, Emily Dickinson, and Gertrude Stein, The poems of William Blake were used and contain wordplay that explores the same deep emotions explored by Blake and Dickinson. We sent those poems to Caroline Shaw and to each other. The result is a series of albums with her and the Atacca Quartet, "Orange" and "Evergreen," that are unlike anything you've heard before, not in any genre of music that has won consecutive Grammy Awards, but in addition, based on her feedback, have been variously tweaked by So Percussion. The music, which has been awarded a Grammy, is unlike anything you've heard before. Grammy-winning engineer Jonathan Lowe, who has recorded for Taylor Swift and others, also co-produced and participated in various aspects of the recording.
