Quartet SMACKDOWN





Hey Austin folks:

I've got a couple o' free tix to this if any of ya'll want to check it out (and vote for MEEEEEEE!). Should be a blast.

(Alternate hook: Do you love the NCAA basketball tournament? Do you love contemporary chamber music? If you answered "yes" to either, then, please, read on...)

The Green Hornet Project is hosting the Tosca Quartet for an event like none I've ever hear of before. 16 composers have entered, one will "win" based on audience voting. They've formed a single-elimination bracket and will play a minute of each piece in the first round, 2 minutes in the second, and so on, until there is a single champion. Crazy! My piece, "Thunderstorm over I-80 in the plains" is a dark horse candidate...

Saturday, Nov. 3rd, 8pm at the Scottish Rite Theater,

207 W. 18th, 512/472-7247


(Let me know if you want the free tix.)
