XFest 1012 and very special upcoming performance
Hi folks,
I'll be doing video improvisations Friday night at 119 Gallery in
Lowell (my favorite performance space) as part of the 2012 edition of
XFest. I'm on for the first five sets Friday evening --The format of
the festival is simple and challenging: 20 visiting artists and 40
local artists perform. On Fri and Sat evenings there are 10 half-hour
sets with 2 visiting artists and 2 local artists -- I've pasted the
full schedule below.
Not much can be more special than XFest, but a visual music live
performance with four of my favorite amazing wind players sure comes
close-:)
March 10 at Outpost 186 in Cambridge.
Doctor T with "Four Winds Blow" -- four of the best wind players in
(or out of) the Boston area
