Dedicated to today's music, their combined individual efforts include the premiers of over forty new works with performances at New York City's The Stone, Boston's Jordan Hall and Washington D.C.'s Kennedy Center. Always looking to collaborate with non-traditional artists and musicians, they will be joined this show by turntablist DJ Dubble8. These three musicians, having all dabbled in the institutionalized world, hold graduate degrees in music from the likes of Harvard University, Johns Hopkins University and the New England Conservatory of Music. New music performed tonight will fuse electronics with live acoustic instruments and visual projections.

06 / 7 Solidarity in Saya: An Afro-Bolivian music movement Start: 8:00 pm End: 9:00 pm Documentary by Maya Jensen $5 donation Solidarity in Saya: An Afro-Bolivian Cultural Music Movement Abstract: This documentary examines the Afro-Bolivian urban youth movement of Saya music in La Paz, Bolivia that uses this traditional music to pursue their social and political needs. As migrants from villages in the rural, semi-tropical Yungas, this community of youths faces alienation in dealing with the foreign urban environment in which they also cope with racial discrimination on a daily basis. These urban youth build a supportive community around the Saya music group, which serves as a refuge from marginalization in mainstream Bolivian society. The social cohesion and unity cultivated within the Saya group has become a platform for political activism to confront the invisibility of the Afro-Bolivian minority. Rather than standing idle while the colonial hegemonic system of racial hierarchy defines them, the Afro-Bolivian Saya group members empower themselves by defining their own history and identity through these music performances. The Afro-Bolivian youths in La Paz use the musical expression of their history and identity to pursue their current goals of increased respect within society and official recognition by the state. more info PROTEST HEAVEN 6/7: BRAD LOVING + JACKSON/SCHNEIDER DUO + INSTANT PLACES Start: 10:00 pm Brad Loving, solo laptop http://birdandwhale.com + Keefe Jackson, reeds Matt Schneider, guitar http://www.myspace.com/keefejacksonsfastcitizens + INSTANT PLACES Ian Birse and Laura Kavanaugh, electronics Canadian artists Birse and Kavanaugh are concluding a residency at the Chicago art space inCUBATE.
