Project Trio performs at UNCA on Feb. 15

Project Trio (Greg Pattillo on flute, Eric Stephenson on cello and Peter Seymour on bass) is based on Brooklyn and is “pushing the boundaries of classical music with a high octane mix of jazz, hip-hop, and rock.” They play UNCA’s Lipinsky Auditorium on Wednesday, Feb. 15 at 8 p.m.

According to a press release, “Of special note is Greg Pattillo’s unique style of Beatbox Flute, which is a mix of traditional flute playing with the beats and rhythms of Human Beatboxing at the same time. Bass drum, cymbal, and snare sounds blend together seamlessly with the flute into a forceful, gritty sound capable of delivering the illusion of multiple performers playing at once.”

Here, Project Trio performs “The Bodega”:

Tickets are $20 general, $7 for area students. Info at http://cesap.unca.edu/events/project-trio.
