Wall Piece
Saturday, June 14th
5:00pm
LA Valley College, music school
5800 Fulton Ave, Valley Glen, CA 91401
A small ensemble will treat the west-facing wall of the LA Valley College practice room building like a graphic score, taking cues from the visual style of Earle Brown and Cornelius Cardew. Erik Carlson will perform part of a year-long piece for solo violin called "Dog Star Palindrome". The performance consists of a short tone. A later, second performance of the same tone at his home in San Diego will create a year-long palindromic work. The second tone will be at a time reflected across the exact mid-point of the year: noon on July 1.
Join us on the grass with blankets and refreshments for a relaxed, on-site performance shaped by the building’s unique design.
