I never got around to making links this Friday – although I saw some fantastic work this weekend: Welcome to Nowhere on Saturday and Siren on Sunday (which was truly spectacular).
Starting today is an interesting video project, Mondays With Merce, that should prove to be interesting as it progresses. I was particularly struck by the music used during teaching, very straightforward and, therefore, surprising (at least to my ears)
Mondays With Merce
every monday from now until, i guess, it stops.

In just over two weeks we will be premiering the new version of Anger at the third annual ISIM Festival in Denver Colorado. This is a major new version of the work, now being called Doleo Æternus. We’re very excited to be going back to our home-town (of sorts) and peforming this piece there. The staff of the ISIM has been extremely helpful, and the soloist: Mike Rugnetta, Amali Premawardhana and Myself; will be joined by members of the University of Denver Playground Ensemble.
The program at ISIM is very large, and as such has only a small space for program notes. My full description of the piece is after the jump. Jump »
