In May, the world lost the equally brilliant and dear Larry Polansky. I am still shocked and heartbroken, but honored to be a part of a concert honoring him on what would have been his 70th birthday, October 16, 2024. It will be an amazing cross section of his work. Near the bay area? Please drop by The Lab.
December 8 – 8 pm at University Settlement, Either/Or presents Time/Again…….featuring a gorgeous premiere by Victoria Cheah and an incredible realization of Henning Christensen’s Requiem of Art (NYC) (fluxorum organum II) (1970/2014). Anthony Coleman is joining us, Alex Lough is working his technical magic and my axe for the show is a megaphone ……….it’s going to be EPIC!!!
