In Situ: Alpenglow
Apr 1, 2016 - 10:00pm Alpenglow creates an experience of sound and light for the audience.

After losing control of a few too many crowds in rock venues, Alpenglow’s Elori Saxl-Kramer created this homemade light show with the intention of bringing audience members further into the heads of the performers. In today’s world of the ubiquitous image, it can almost seem as though people can fully enjoy something that only appeals to one of their senses.

In Situ: Kaoru Watanabe
Feb 29, 2016 - 8:00pm On his new album Neó (pronounced neh-o), composer, taiko and shinobue player Kaoru Watanabe artfully blends the sounds of old Japan- of the matsuri festival and the fantastical worlds of noh and kabuki theaters- with complex rhythmic and improvisational elements of jazz. Featuring the taiko drums, shinobue bamboo flutes, various Japanese percussion and voice, Watanabe and his ensemble, also called Neó, will perform mostly original works that re-imagine traditional music, explore the concept of yuugen (an ephemeral dream state) as well as deal with personal history and contemporary society.
The characters for Neó ?? can be interpreted as the "beginning of sound" or even "unified sound". Appropriately, Neó also sounds like neo, suggesting an innovative approach to these ancient instruments.
With special guest Alicia Hall Moran.
