Ensemble 303, a new experimental music assemblage, performs a concert of new and classic works of experimental music at the new experimental arts performance space, the wulf.. Featuring performances of La Monte Young’s “Composition 1960 #7” and James Tenney’s “In a large, open space,” Casey Anderson’s “fades/cross-fades II” from the collection “exchange symmetry as cultural model for these our withering years,” and the premiere of John Hastings’s “Sonic Spiral.” Michael Pisaro, Ulrich Krieger, John Hastings, and Casey Anderson perform with an assortment of CalArts’ finest performers for an afternoon matinee of music that is at as delicate as it is epic, relaxed as it is energetic, and holy in the way that only slowly evolving music can be. Scones will be served.

WHERE
the wulf.
the wulf. is located at 1026 south santa fe avenue #203, los angeles, ca
90021 (southeast downtown close to where the 10 meets the 5). to enter, dial
203 at the door (labeled michael winter or eric clark on the sacremento side
of the building) and you will be buzzed in (you can buzz even if you come
late and it will not disrupt anything). also, feel free to bring
refreshments and food.
as eric and mike are just getting started with performances at the wulf., they are
lacking performance space necessities (most importantly, seating); so bring
a cushion, pillow, or chair if you want to relax comfortably on the concrete
floor (though we now have a carpet down).

One of the most vibrant and eclectic music hotspots in Europe, the Netherlands boast an exceptional wealth of up-and-coming innovators who are busy expanding not only the heterogeneity and freedom of contemporary musical content — but also the role of music and concert programming in society. This weekend festival is devoted to the work of some of today’s brightest Dutch composers — artists who are exploring new and unprecedented creative horizons as diligently as they are dispensing with the convictions and values of yesteryear. The CalArts New Century Players will be performing works by Michel van der Aa, Antoine Beuger, Dante Boon, Rozalie Hirs, Christina Oorebeek, Edward Top, Matijs de Roo, Joey Roukens, Giel Vleggaar, Peter-Jan Wagemans, and Robert Zuidam. The California E.A.R. Unit follows with an early Sunday evening concert, featuring pieces by Yannis Kyriakides, Mayke Nas, Martijn Padding, Jacob ter Veldhuis and Diderik Wagenaar.
