Dear Friends, There will be another performance of Sugar Maple Cosmica for flute and percussion at the Flea Theatre in New York City on December 13, 2009 at 3:00 P.M. Performing will be Paul Lustig Dunkel, flute and Joseph Passaro, percussion. Admission is FREE. http://www.theflea.org/show_detail.php?page_type=0&show_id=12 DECEMBER 13 at 3pm “Instruments of Your Dreams Part 2!” Jeff Myers-Jack Quartet Michael Gatonska James Schlefer Patrick Grant Guest Moderator: Mari Kimura There will be nothing conventional about this diverse group of voices. Composer Jeff Myers has written an energetic and compelling piece for the exciting up-and-coming Jack Quartet (protégés of Kronos); composer Michael Gatonska has written idiosyncratic works for orchestra and soloists. In this concert, he will premiere a work for flute and percussion. Legendary flutist/conductor Paul Dunkel is one of the performers; James Schlefer is a virtuoso on the shakuhachi (the Japanese cousin to the flute!), he is also composing lately and will be premiering a new lyrical work for an ensemble of Japanese instruments; finally, Patrick Grant has written high-energy music for stage, clubs, films, and burlesque shows. He has led several ensembles, but here he is going solo with electronic keyboard, laptop, and a smorgasbord of electronic effects and sounds. His work can be found at www.nyoraku.com. Violinist/composer/electronics wizard Mari Kimura switches roles in December and acts as host of the post-concert discussion.
