TUESDAY LOWDOWN: ‘Different Trains’ Departs in Ferndale
They’re trying something new down in Ferndale. For the first time, the Eureka Chamber Music Series and The Old Steeple are collaborating to present a night “combining live music and a panel discussion about freedom, history, and the role of art in society” starring the Balourdet Quartet. And they’ve got something special planned for y’all. From The Old Steeple website:
The centerpiece of the evening will be a performance of the groundbreaking and Grammy Award winning “Different Trains” by American composer Steve Reich, which combines live musical performance with pre-recorded sound, inspired by two very different sorts of World War II era train trips, one in America and and one in Europe during the holocaust.
Details on that show and other Tuesday delights can be found in your Tuesday Lowdown below.
