Murmuration | Rétes

Classically-based Improvisation with influences ranging from Handel to Hole. Murmuration is: Eric Coyne on cello/piano, Russell Kotcher on violin/piano and Andrew Marsh on vocals/piano. In live performance, lyrics are either fully improvised, based around previously selected material or texts taken on the spot from the audience (books, journals, a few brave cell phones). The selections provided here are all Completely Improvised (often with no prior plan) except for Balance Act, which is the band’s first effort at group composition in collaboration with Mark Zelesky on Saxophone. Quintet features Kate Porter on cello and Rosie Langabeer on accordion. Septet features Misha Marks on accordion, Joshua Machiz on double bass, Chad Brown on percussion, and Rosie Langabeer on spoons.
Sunday, July 7 at 7 PM
Tickets $15
