Musicians and composers present collaborative and original percussion compositions developed during the So Percussion Summer Institute on the "SoSI Day of Sonic Exploration."
Princeton Public Library partners with Sō Percussion to highlight performances by participants of Sō Percussion Summer Institute (SōSI 2024). SōSI 2024 marks the program's 16th anniversary as participants continue to focus on creating and premiering new works while also highlighting works from previous years.

Since its inception in 1999, education has become an increasingly important part of Sō’s mission. Its members share a firm belief that inherent in an artist’s career is a responsibility to pass on practical advice and mentorship to young artists. SōSI seeks to fulfill this promise by providing a unique educational opportunity to percussionists and composers at one of the most critical stages of their development. The program offers a hands-on experience that brings the practical and theoretical together: commissioning/creating new music, fruitful collaboration with and among artists, the rehearsal and development process, and performance.
