(Doors 5 p.m. / DJ 6:30 p.m.)
Join us in celebrating what would have been the ninety-fifth birthday of the brilliant and innovative California composer Lou Harrison. Our galleries reverberate, shimmer, and shake with no fewer than three choruses (the UC Berkeley Chamber Chorus, Sacred and Profane, and the USF Classical Choral Ensemble) and a large battery of handcrafted percussion instruments known as the American gamelan. The evening features a performance of Harrison’s powerful La Koro Sutro, conducted by Marika Kuzma, and two chamber works, performed by the Abel-Steinberg-Winant Trio. Please come early for best seating. A limited number of chairs will be available; please bring a pillow and make yourself comfortable on the gallery floor.
$7 general admission; free for BAM/PFA Members and UC Berkeley, staff, students, and faculty
