Friday October 22nd - "Ad Hoc" Series Event hosted by SASSAS
NEW “AD HOC” SERIES TO SUPPORT NATIONAL AND INTERNATIONAL TOURING MUSICIANS
Collaboration with Human Resources to feature visiting musicians from Norway and Australia, Kim Myhr and Jim Denley, on October 22, 2010
(LOS ANGELES) SASSAS is pleased to announce Ad Hoc, a new concert series presented in collaboration with the Chinatown based collective, Human Resources. Ad Hoc #1 takes place Friday, October 22, 2010 at Human Resources’ space in Chinatown and features the renowned experimental musicians Kim Myhr (Norway), Jim Denley (Australia) performing as Mural, and local artist GE Stinson.
Since its founding over ten years ago SASSAS (The Society for the Activation of Social Space Through Art and Sound) has presented the best experimental music to Los Angeles audiences through the sound. series of concerts. While sound. requires months of advance planning, all to often, SASSAS is approached by national and international touring musicians looking for venues to perform in Los Angeles with little advance notice. Ad Hoc was founded out of the belief that it benefits the greater Los Angeles community and the reputation of LA in the international sound community if these musicians are able to add Los Angeles to their tour schedule.
Developed in collaboration with the Chinatown-based collective Human Resources, Ad Hoc is designed to accommodate short term requests by national and international touring musicians wanting to perform in Los Angeles. SASSAS and Human Resources collaborate to find lodging for the musicians and transportation as needed. All Ad Hoc concerts are volunteer run and low cost with tickets sold on a first come, first serve basis the night of the show. The majority of door proceeds go directly to the touring musicians.
Doors for Ad Hoc #1 open at 8:30pm on Friday, October 22 at Human Resources, 510 Bernard St. in Chinatown, 90012. Tickets are $8.00. For show info visit www.sassas.org or phone 323/960-5723.
A quietly outstanding piece of Improv, a haunting world of breathtaking timbral beauty … an extraordinary creation - The Wire on nectars of emergence by Jim Denely and Kim Myhr
Jim Denley is considered one of Australia’s foremost improvisers of new music with a career spanning over three decades. An emphasis on spontaneity, site-specific work and collaboration has been central to his work. He was recently awarded a Fellowship by the Australia Council and is currently working towards a paradigm shift in the notion and perception of the saxophone; to establish its relevance to ancient and current traditions in Australian music, and to extend its range with the addition of innovative electronics and miking. Denley also runs the record label Splitrec. In Mural, Jim plays flute and saxophone. (http://www.splitrec.com)
Kim Myhr is a guitarist and composer based in Oslo, Norway. He studied at Berklee College of Music in Boston and has since had an active performance schedule with concerts throughout Europe, Australia, Asia and North-America. In 2008, he received the JazZtipend at the Molde International Jazz Festival which included a commission for Trondheim Jazz Orchestra, a large ensemble consisting of thirteen handpicked improvisers from Norway and Australia; the one hour piece received wide critical acclaim. Myhr is also the co-director of the Fri Resonans festival, which has been presenting cutting-edge and innovative music in Trondheim, Norway since 2005. (http://www.myspace.com/kimmyhrmusic)
