KINHOUA + ENEIDI-GOLIA QUARTET

Friday September 24, 2010
8pm

Community Music Center
544 Capp Street, San Francisco CA
Tickets $12 at the door


KINHOUA
KIHNOUA is a term borrowed from ancient Greek that might have meant
“the difference.” This is an ensemble formed by Larry Ochs (ROVA
Saxophone Quartet) in 2007. A longtime fan of traditional Korean
p’ansori singing and of Korean sinawi improvisation, it is with great
pleasure that we attempt to intermingle the very new thoughts, sounds
and structures of “Western improvised music” with the very ancient
sounds of Korea and other folk-music influences from Asia. Africa and
Europe.

Scott Amendola, drums and electronics

ENEIDI-GOLIA QUARTET
Oakland-bred, Vienna-based alto saxophonist Marco Eneidi has performed
with pioneering musicians such as Cecil Taylor, Denis Charles,
William Parker, Glenn Spearman, and Bill Dixon. All Music Guide
describes his playing as “fast and hard, with a bright tone and
fertile imagination; few improvisers have quicker reflexes.”  Vinny
Golia, "the abbot of L.A. edge jazz" (LA Weekly), is a
multi-instrumentalist, bandleader and composer whose music embraces
the continuum from delicate, intricate improvisations to fierce and
visceral sonic explosions.  A commanding and riveting presence on a
variety of saxophones, clarinets and flutes, Golia delivers every note
like it's his last, and performs with electric intensity. This quartet
brings together Eneidi and Golia with one of the Bay Area's most
in-demand rhythm sections.

Red Shoe Project of Degenerate Art Ensemble in Seattle 

Frye Art Museum

Location: Seattle, Washington
Date: May 2011 (5/7, 5/14, 5/21, 5/28)

Red Shoe Project is a contemporary fairytale in five chapters exploring the struggle to follow one's creative path. It will premiere as a series of public indoor/outdoor events around the Frye Art Museum next spring 2011. Red Shoe Project harnesses the comical and horrific butoh dance of Haruko Nishimura, the power of lyrical and soulful string quartet music written by Jherek Bischoff and Joshua Kohl, the earth-shaking Korean shaman vocals and percussion of Dohee Lee, within the ingenious installations created by Jason Puccinelli and the phantasmagorical video art of Leo Mayberry. This sonic and visual theater invites you to re-imagine Hans Christian Andersen's The Red Shoes, the tale of a girl who is cursed to dance herself to death as a punishment for following her desires. Performances of the Red Shoe Project are being held in conjunction with the first museum survey of Degenerate Art Ensemble's work at the Frye Art Museum in spring 2011.

FALL 2011: "LINE BETWEEN", inkBoat: Dohee Lee, Shinichi Iova-Koga, Jason Ditzian and Suki O'Kane

Program Overview
This event will feature the premiere of PURI 5: "SPoRA," a multidisciplinary new piece that will explore the themes of migration and the Asian diaspora within a context of international war.

Featuring instrumentals, vocals and spoken word by renowned Korean percussionist and vocalist Dohee Lee with performances by local and international musicians Van-Anh Vanessa Vo (Dan Tranh and other instruments) and Hiroyuki Jimi Nakagawa (Taiko). Special performances by Jamaesori and other artists TBD.

The premiere will include an artist talk led by Ms. Lee.

In December 2009, OACC received a challenge grant of $5,000 from the East Bay Fund for Artists at the East Bay Community Foundation to commission Dohee Lee to create and premiere PURI 5: "SPoRA."

Since then, thanks to our community's generous support we met the challenge and have exceeded it by raising over $6,000 to date. With your continued support we can reach our goal of $20,000.
