To mark their 30th anniversary on stage, the Hamburg ensemble presents an extraordinary concert programme featuring many highlights from their career: rhythmic brilliance, surprising soundscapes and infectious energy from four percussionists who set the rhythm of their time. An evening of passion, precision and pure power – The Rhythm of the City!
