2008/09 season preview
Posted on 7.30.08-------------------------------------------------------
The Music Gallery's 2008/09 season starts the first week of September. For the third year in a row, a season highlight is sure to be our X AVANT Festival, which this year takes place a little later, Oct. 21-26, and also has a theme: "Space is the Place." Six days of new music that travels the spaceways, and honours the spirits of two twin celestial voyagers: Sun Ra and Stockhausen. This space-faring festival will launch on Oct. 21 with the world premiere of a new collaboration between Canada's Coleman Lemieux dance company and the Sun Ra Arkestra, under the direction of Marshall Allen, at a special venue to be announced, and will reach its final destination at the Music Gallery on Oct. 26 with "Last Kontakte," a tribute to late composer Karlheinz Stockhausen, featuring performers Steve Drury and Aiyun Huang. more>
