OUTPOST SERIES FOR OCTOBER 2007

 

BIRDSONGS OF THE MESOZOIC

Oct 4, 11, 17, 24 (8pm)

Members of the legendary electrified chamber ensemble Birdsongs of the Mesozoic will be in residence with occasional special guests. The group normally performs almost entirely composed music, complex enough that it is read on stage from sheet music.  For an upcoming performance Birdsongs will be incorporating for the first time large amounts of textural improvisation.  These evenings will be devoted to public experimentation in this direction.  Admission is free; donations will be accepted to help defer the cost of the room rental.
