California E.A.R. Unit Returns to REDCAT 10/22
Los Angeles' fearless new music ensemble returns to REDCAT for one night only with an all-new program featuring Champ Vital (Life Field), penned by the inimitable David Rosenboom along with works composed by Linda Bouchard and the Unit's own members. The concert will be held at the Roy and Edna Disney/CalArts Theater on Friday, October 22, 2010 at 8:30 pm.
Described by The New York Times as "[performing] with exuberance and razor sharp precision," the ensemble takes on David Rosenboom's Champ Vital (Life Field), soon to be released on the Tzadic label. Composed for violin, piano and percussion, Champ Vital is inspired by ideas of morphogenesis and evolution, employing melodic shape mutations to build 25 transformative variations on a hidden theme.
Also on the program for this evening are Eric KM Clark's exPAT, an aggressive odyssey scored for "distorted instruments"; the electronics-savvy Belgo II, Amy Knoles' clever confounding of violin, piano, sampled text and bird song; and Vicki Ray's Jugg(ular)ling, which follows the ever-increasing complexity of juggling feats captured on video; and presents Linda Bouchard's multimedia work Spill Out/Fish Tank.
California E.A.R. Unit: Champ Vital (Life Field) is performed at REDCAT on Friday October 22, 2010. Curtain for performance is 8:30 pm. Tickets are $20 general admission ($16 for students with current I.D.) and are available at www.redcat.org or by calling 213 237-2800. REDCAT is located at the corner of W. 2nd and Hope Streets, inside the Walt Disney Concert Hall complex (631 West 2nd Street, Los Angeles, CA 90012).
