ANYWHERE IN TIME:
A CONLON NANCARROW FESTIVAL
June 17–28
Since his death in 1997, the music of Conlon Nancarrow, which borrowed both from boogie-woogie and the atonal avant-garde, has grown in influence and infamy. This landmark festival will include a retrospective of Nancarrow’s complete Studies for Player Piano and performances by Alarm Will Sound, Steve Coleman, and others, as well as a dance performance presented by the Merce Cunningham Trust.
