Haydn, Bach, original music by violinist Maria Miller, and arrangements of Japanese, Scandinavian and American Folk Songs.
The house darkens as stage lights focus upon two young men and a lady. Flute to lips and bows to violin & cello, the first note heralds a journey across borders, worlds and time steeped in legends and magic. “I’ve never heard anything like this,” audiences exclaim; Sonic Escape responds by playing harder, composing better, digging deeper.
As graduates of The Juilliard School, Shawn Wyckoff (flute), Maria Kaneko Millar (violin) and Nan-Cheng Chen (cello) have performed in classical music’s greatest halls – The Kennedy Center, Carnegie Hall and Lincoln Center, to name a few. They’ve also traveled the world in roles as diverse as fiddle-dancing in Riverdance, jamming with Beale Street blues bands, soloing & drumming with taiko troupes, improvising with Native-American flute masters, dancing while performing the tango music of Astor Piazzolla, and playing rock clubs across NYC. This lifelong commitment to devouring new sounds and pushing boundaries – both within themselves and the musical establishment – is why Sonic Escape came to be. It’s also how the trio amassed a ridiculous technique that makes audiences swear they’re hearing an orchestra of a dozen different instruments or the synchronous voice of one.
