"Hypercube came to SFASU in the spring of 2016, and performed a brilliant concert of new, contemporary music. The students enjoyed the performance because of the group’s passion and energy they brought to each piece. We were extremely impressed with their performance! They also gave a phenomenal masterclass where students got to interact with all the members in a small, intimate setting, which made for a great question-and- answer session." —Bradley Meyer, Professor of Percussion, Stephen F. Austin State University

"We were so lucky to have Hypercube stop by the University of Tennessee to perform for our students.

It was a real treat for our students to hear this caliber of literature performed live by this caliber of performers. I would highly recommend them to any of my colleagues around the United States!" — Andrew Bliss, Professor of Percussion, University of Tennessee

"Hypercube's performance at the University of Tennessee at Martin was impressive, inspiring, and educational. Our students really loved the variety of repertoire and the opportunity to engage with the performers and learn more about the composers, music, and techniques that were a part of the concert. Hypercube is made up of really nice people which is an added bonus. They were extremely low maintenance in terms of hosting a group of their size which was much appreciated by our music office staff (and me). This group has only been around a few years, but they are certainly here to stay!" - Dr. Julie Hill, Chair, UT Martin Department of Music "

“Passionate about their craft, Hypercube is an intense, energetic, and virtuosic ensemble not to be missed! Their unique instrumentation of saxophone, guitar (electric and classical), piano, and percussion allows for a diverse sound world that can just as easily enter the realm of rock and jazz as it can classical music. If you have the chance, definitely see them perform. Their concerts will keep you on the edge of your seat with intrigue and excitement!” - Aaron Jay Myers
