For their first performance at ISSUE the Peter Evans Quintet debuts five new compositions by Evans including pieces dedicated to biologist Lynn Margulis and musician/composer Alice Coltrane, in addition to improvisatory platforms for the unique playing styles of the band members.
Longtime collaborators Briggan Krauss (alto saxophone, laptop) and Wayne Horvitz (keyboards, electronics) team up with mutual coconspirator Jim Black (drums, laptop) for a golden evening of spectacular noise and audio sweetness.
For the 2004 HOWL Festival, ISSUE Project Room will be presenting an interpretation of seminal British avant-garde composer Cornelius Cardew’s 1969 experimental music piece The Great Learning from Paragraph Two.
