About the event
A concert featuring iconic songs, saxophone works, vocal canons, and other arranged compositions by the American minimalist composer Moondog. The ensemble pays homage to Louis Hardin AKA Moondog who composed music creating an unexpected link between the resurgent science of counterpoint, Arapaho, Navajo, Blackfoot, and Sioux rhythms and song forms, the art of jazz improvisation, pagan/norse themes, and the beginnings of a repetitive and minimalist aesthetic. Trimbist/vocalist Julian Calv directs the ensemble to play this music that Frank Zappa once described as "Clockwork-dada". The concert includes background about the music from Julian- who studied with Moondog’s only student, Stefan Lakatos.
The concert includes two openers with members of Trimbtych. Julian Calv and Andrew Schulman will be improvising on a Gregorian chant to set the scene, and following will be local shoegaze-slowcore trio Wolf Girlz.
Julian Calv is an American composer, singer, and trimbist. Born February 18 1999 in New Brunswick,…
