Andy Akiho’s compositions are not just musical performances; they are immersive experiences that explode the boundaries of classical music. The five-time Grammy nominee and Pulitzer Prize finalist is known for his innovative symphonies. Recently, he drummed on a giant Jun Kaneko sculpture at an Oregon Symphony concert and also composed a concerto featuring ping pong players on stage.
