# Event Details

- **Event Name**: Etchings Festival Day 1 | Ecce Ensemble & King Klavé Trio
- **Event Start and End Date**: Fri, 10 Jul, 2026 at 07:00 pm
- **Event Description**: The Etchings Festival, now in its 17th summer, showcases cutting edge contemporary music across a wide variety of genres. Join us for concerts on July 10, 11 and 12 featuring outstanding guest composers and virtuosic performances. On July 10th and 11th, we'll be nestled under the pines at Look Park's Sanctuary at Willow Lake. On July 12th, we'll be back in the Bombyx Sanctuary.

The Festival opens with an electrifying evening of new music and genre-defying collaboration featuring Ecce Ensemble and the boundary-pushing artistry of Amaury Acosta's King Klavé Trio.

Ecce Ensemble is redefining the concert music experience with genre-defying works of new chamber music performed with startling virtuosity. The ensemble's core members – violinist Jordan Hadrill, cellist Robbie Bui, flautist Lily Xie, clarinetist Barret Ham, and pianist Geoffrey Burleson – are all brilliant soloists in their own right. This summer, they joins forces with percussionist Dennis Sullivan and renowned alto saxophonist Philipp Stäudlin under the direction of composer / conductor Stratis Minakakis. Renowned composer Toshio Hosokawa will be featured alongside newly commissioned works by Karaline Coates, Bryan Chiang, Grant Beale and Alex Van Sant.

King Klavé Trio is Amaury Acosta, Mike King, and Morgan Guerin. Amaury Acosta a.k.a King Klavé is a Cuban-American drummer, composer, and producer based in New York City. Renowned for his creativity and genre-blurring sound, Amaury’s music is as rooted in tradition as it is forward-looking. He merges Afro-Cuban rhythms, jazz, hip-hop, funk, soul, and electronic music to create immersive, otherworldly experiences that resonate deeply with today’s audiences. Attendees of Omar Sosa's Atlantica performance at Bombyx in the Fall of 2024 may remember Acosta's spellbinding percussion. His debut album, KingKlavé was named one of NPR’s 2022 Staff Picks for Album of the Year.

At the center of the evening will be Acosta’s Pepe Suite, a large-scale work blending modern jazz ensemble writing, electronic sound, Afro-Cuban musical traditions, and the rhythmic influence of Chicago footwork culture. Drawing inspiration from artists including Wayne Shorter, Herbie Hancock, Maria Schneider, Gerald Clayton, DJ Rashad, DJ Manny, and Traxman, the work creates an immersive sonic landscape that is both deeply rooted and strikingly futuristic.
