REDCAT (the Roy and Edna Disney/CalArts Theater) presents The Claudia Quintet for a one-night engagement recasting jazz in shimmering new shapes inflected by minimalism, new music, progressive rock and post-rock on Wednesday, October 28, 2009.
String quartet with a modernist pulse, members of the New York- and Berlin-based Osso have built dramatic arrangements in collaboration with an array of artists and genres, including Jay-Z, Alice and Ravi Coltrane, The New Pornographers, Antony and the Johnsons, The Polyphonic Spree, The National, Devotchka and Kanye West. Their interpretation of Sufjan Stevens' eccentric electronica album Enjoy Your Rabbit -each song named for a year of the Chinese zodiac-recomposes computer keystrokes into rhythmic classical arrangements, bridging the drama of indie rock and the nuance of chamber harmonies. The result is Run Rabbit Run-arranged by Stevens expressly for Osso-to be released on Asthmatic Kitty Records October 6.
