> DESCRIPTION

Music and dance performance by Berlin dancer, Yuko Kaseki and Kanoko Nishi (koto), with sets by the Wiener Kids and TrueCollapse (Charity Chan - accordion, Karl A.D. Evangelista - guitars, Alexander Vittum: drums/percussion & electronics). True Collapse is a group exploration of improvisational music ideas, emphasizing the collaborative creation of both tonal and completely denatured sonic space. This ensemble represents a union of East Coast free jazz sensibilities, Bay Area experimentalism, and multinational improvisation forms (Masayuki Takayanagi/Kaoru Abe from Japan, the Spontaneous Music Ensemble and AMM from England, and the Blue Notes from South Africa). Wiener Kids debuts a new trio format with Cory Wright (baritone sax), Aram Shelton (alto sax), and Jordan Glenn- drums/melodica/composition. The music is fast and slow, loud and soft. It draws a s much from Jan Svankmajer and Hans Bellmer as Peewee Herman and Jim Henson. Music made by ex/current weaklings for everyone!
