Pamplemousse presents: Chance & Circumstance Vol. 3
Ensemble Pamplemousse curates and produces a three-day festival of experimental music and performance at Clinton Hill’s newly renovated JACK arts space, from September 19 – 21, 2019. The third iteration of an annual festival follows in the tradition of the Annual Avant-Garde Festival, which took place between 1963 and 1980, advancing the careers of hundreds of young musicians and artists while deeply expanding the repertoire of the disciplines featured. Chance and Circumstance seeks to bring together American collectives and sound/media artists working in the field of experimental arts, music, and music theater, with a strong focus on the community of New York City.
All events hosted by JACK, at 18 Putnam Ave (not the former Waverly address, but just down the block).
All events $15, ($10 students & seniors). Festival passes will be available shortly.

About:
September 19th features two Brooklyn-based composer/performers presenting rigorous solo material. Daniel Silliman’s emerging solo practice juxtaposes harsh electronic feedback with idiosyncratic networks of magnetic tape and esoteric sound synthesis. Erin Rogers applies a multivalent approach toward the saxophone family and theatrical music, often bridging rigorous compositional detail with playfully virtuosic narratives. Balancing the program is a duo of two New Haven-based bassists, Zach Rowden and Robert Black performing a new work written with Pamplemousse’s own Natacha Diels.
