Daren Burns' Onibaba and Open Gate Theatre @ Center for the Arts, Eagle Rock 10-17-10

Open Gate Theatre @ (626)795-4989
Center for the Arts, Eagle Rock

Presents Onibaba:

Onibaba exists between composition and improvisation and is described as being somewhere between the light and the dark, the ethereal and the earthly - Creative Music. Created by Daren Burns in 2006, the band synthesizes its sound by using elements of the Chicago avant-garde, jazz, rock, world, techno, noise, and classical, to create a new type of fusion that is definitely not the smooth, funky jazz of the 80’s and 90’s, but a new living music.

Angel City Arts presents: Onibaba Live @ Royal/T Aug. 7th, 8PM

Onibaba exists between composition and improvisation and is described as being somewhere between the light and the dark, the ethereal and the earthly - Creative Music. Created by Daren Burns in 2006, the band synthesizes its sound by using elements of the Chicago avant-garde, jazz, rock, world, techno, noise, and classical, to create a new type of fusion that is definitely not the smooth, funky jazz of the 80’s and 90’s, but a ...new living music.

In live performance, the band is also committed to the use of live video images to expand the ensemble from sound to sight. The video doesn’t act as a narrative or as a background, but as a sixth element and contributor to the performance.

Also Misuzu and Daren are moving to Sedona, AZ on the 9th so this will be his last performance in LA for a little bit. Come out and say 'Hi'!

Featuring:

Vinny Golia-woodwinds

Duodenum this Friday @ The WildBeast

Duodenum (Scott Collins, guitar & electronics; Carmina Escobar, voice & electronics) will be performing a live score to two silent films this Friday @ The Wild Beast @ CalArts, the new performance facility named after composer Morton Feldman. This is not to be missed as Collins and Escobar are two of the the most mature and interesting improvisers in the Los Angeles area and always deliver a great listening experience.

About the films: "Ménilmontant" (1925) by Dimitri Kirsanoff, a complex story about seduction, jealousy and prostitution completely narrated within intertitels; and Joseph Vogel´s "The house of cards" (1947) an avant-garde film noir about a man haunted by thoughts of murder and violence.


The Wild Beast is the newest performance facility @ Cal Arts

Time: 8:00-9:15PM
Address: 24700 McBean Parkway, Valencia, CA 91355-2340
