Creatures of Sound
Creatures Of Sound is a new dance and music work that tributes the ideas of composer and trumpeter Don Cherry, featuring choreography by Michele Brangwen, original music by GRAMMY-nominated trumpeter & composer Tim Hagans, and movement and music created spontaneously in the moment by all ten performers. Don Cherry was interested in the relationship of music to the human spirit, and how music could be a force and a presence in our daily lives. Co-presented at the Duffy by Ivesian Arts, Creatures of Sound invites the audience into a magical exploration and celebration of what connects us to each other and the universe.
Creatures of Sound is performed by Adam Castañeda, Meredith Fages, Cristian Laverde König, Lindsey McGill and Michele Brangwen, dancers; Tim Hagans, pocket trumpet; Angela Wang, voice; Michael Eaton, saxophone; Thorbjørn Stefansson, bass; Evan J. Hyde, drums.
The program will also include music by Don Cherry including Brown Rice, Chenrezig, and Art Deco, performed by the Michele Brangwen Dance & Music Ensemble musicians.
