San Francisco Performances - Pivot Festival

Composer/singer-songwriter Gabriel Kahane returns as guest curator once again for the tenth season of PIVOT. Kahane’s work exists at the intersection of art and social practice, and he is one of the most thoughtful—and thought-provoking—artists of his generation. He will perform opening night and host all three evenings of deliciously ingenious music brimming with thought, humor—both dark and light—and substance.

Grammy®-nominated ensemble Sandbox Percussion is dedicated to artistry in contemporary chamber music, captivating worldwide audiences with visually and aurally stunning performances. The ensemble will perform Pulitzer Prize-nominated composer Andy Akiho’s evening-length Seven Pillars, a boldly genre-defying work for percussion quartet.
