Umbilicus was founded in 2012 as a reaction to the generic contemporary percussion quartet, intending to promote and perform a more experimental repertoire, much if it composed by its
members. It consists of three UMBC alumni — Paul Neidhardt, Michelle Purdy, Will Redman — and UMBC faculty member Tom Goldstein. The name Umbilicus contains the letters U M B C.
$15 general admission, $10 seniors, $5 students, free for UMBC music majors and music faculty/staff, available online or at the box office one hour prior to the performance.
