Each piece explores the musical motifs of a different decade or genre in pop music. The evening will culminate with performances of music from Beck Hansen's Song Reader.

Buckingham & Galloway: Atemporal

Charles Buckingham and Vance Galloway present works encouraging active listening and contemplation of our shifting perceptions of time. No video: the scene behind your closed eyelids will serve as your only visual aid. Field recordings, electronic and acoustic guitar, radio interference, and signals from long-deceased stars are sources for extensive mixing and signal processing.

Horvitz / Krauss / Holcomb etc.

An evening of collaborations featuring Wayne Horvitz (piano, electronics), Briggan Krauss (saxophone), Robin Holcomb (piano, voice), and very special guests from Vancouver.

Pran (Greg Powers + Stuart Dempster)

Pran is trombonist Greg Powers improvising in the Dagarbhani style of Hindustani Music. Powers is the only trombonist in the world performing this ancient style of music as Stuart Dempster holds down the drone on a big brass didjeridu. Powers is a pioneer in adapting Indian music to the trombone. He is a disciple of the Dagarbhani tradition and has studied with Jeff Lewis, Ustad Farid'uddin Dagar, Uday Bhawalkar, Baha'uddin Dagar and Wasif'uddin Dagar in Seattle and Mumbai. As a Fulbright Fellow to India he studied with Ustad Yunus Hussein Khan in New Delhi.

Analog Honking Device

Analog Honking Device - tenor saxophonist Cynthia Mullis, Idaho soprano saxophonist Brent Jensen, Steve Kim (electric bass), Chris Symer (acoustic bass) and Chris Icasiano (drums) - performs music based on the modern jazz repertoire approached with a free and open, improvisatory, experimental aesthetic. The result is a seat-of-the-pants musical adventure that veers between the inside and outside parameters of the jazz experience.
