Waves, The Stone, and an Electro-Acoustic Odyssey

Just when you thought TABOR was uncomfortably quiet, we spring from the darkness yet again......

This time to collaborate with a good west coast friend, William Susman at The Stone, NYC on March 17th, 8:00pm.
Don't miss TABOR perform acoustic piece 6 Minutes and 30 Seconds and electro-acoustic work Waves. If you missed out on our first performance of Waves, we strongly suggest you make it up to yourselves by coming this time! And if you have heard it already, then you know it is never the same twice.

Inspired by Homer's Odyssey, Waves will lure you in with sweet undulations of old school soundtrack and improvisatory madness plucked from the brains of not only TABOR, but of mutli-instrumentalist Demetrius Spaneas and William Susman himself. Other works of William Susman will be performed including live music to Tribeca Film Festival Best Documentary Short “Native New Yorker”.

We are really looking forward to jamming at The Stone......and yes an ensemble of our nature can jam!

So how did we meet up with our good friend Bill, you ask? Myspace of course! In fact, I can't remember exactly how it started.....a message here, a message there, a score sent and performances followed. Despite the extreme pressure of having the title the intended duration of the piece, we have managed to perform it at 6 Minutes and 29 Seconds. Not too shabby.
When Bill heard we were venturing into more electronic works, he sent us Waves, which is a fresh exploration each time we get on the stage to perform it. Many rehearsals in darkened rooms later, we present to you an unpredictable journey into reverberating caverns, siren seductions, and electronic gargling bliss. See you on the other side....
