Caroline Shaw & So Percussion Rectangles and Circumstance on LP

Rectangles and Circumstance comprises ten songs co-written and performed by Caroline Shaw and So Percussion.

Shaw and So's Eric Cha-Beach and Adam Sliwinski "sourced a group of nineteenth-century poems that shaped its expressive mode [and] ended up using verses by Christina Rosetti, Emily Brontë, Emily Dickinson, Gertrude Stein, and William Blake," says Sliwinski. "The lyrics on this album by members of the band contain wordplay that explores the same profound feelings explored by Blake and Dickinson."

Shaw and So co-produced the album with Grammy-winning engineer Jonathan Low (The National, Taylor Swift).

Caroline Shaw is a musician who moves among roles, genres, and mediums, trying to imagine a world of sound that has never been heard before but has always existed. She is the recipient of the 2013 Pulitzer Prize in Music, several Grammy awards, an honorary doctorate from Yale, and a Thomas J. Watson Fellowship. Shaw was just announced as Wigmore Hall's 2024–'25 Composer in Residence.

For 20 years and counting, So Percussion has redefined chamber music for the twenty-first century through an "exhilarating blend of precision and anarchy, rigor and bedlam" (New Yorker). Its members are the Edward T. Cone performers-in-residence at Princeton University.
