Recap
Recap is a quartet of percussionists, all women and people of color, who advocate for diversity in the world of percussion. The group released its debut album, Count to Five, in 2021.
Recap's members are Arlene Acevedo, Alexis Carter, Tiahna Sterling, and Aline Vasquez. They define themselves as "a new percussion quartet from a new generation of musicians seeking to redefine what classical music ensembles can be," and further that they "embrace their diverse backgrounds as well as the history and culture of their city to create a musical identity uniquely their own." In Acevedo's words, "We want to show the world that anyone can do this. We're young women of color doing this ... and you can too!" All four women attended high school in Rahway, New Jersey, where they were close friends. They went on to become members of the tuition-free youth ensemble Mantra Youth Percussion, a group performing under the aegis of the Mantra Percussion arts organization.
Recap has performed around the metropolitan New York area and began to attract national attention in 2021, appearing in August of that year at the 2021 New Music Gathering in St. Paul, Minnesota. That year, the group released the album Count to Five on the Innova label; the album featured new works by Angélica Negrón, Allison Loggins-Hull, Ellen Reid, Lesley Flanigan, Mary Kouyoumdjian, and Caroline Shaw, and showcased the group's abilities on a wide range of percussion instruments, including found objects. Recap's plans for 2022 and beyond included global tours featuring new music, an effort to inspire young players weighing whether to follow a career path in contemporary arts, and, for 2022, a collaboration with indigenous artists from Alaska in a hybrid work fusing performance and documentary film, supported in part by Found Sound Nation, the Wildshore Festival for New Music, and the U.S. National Park Service.
