SUMMARY:Iron Giant Free Association @ East Village Arts
DESCRIPTION:Birmingham Art Music Alliance and East Village Arts present \nIron Giant Free Association \nThursday\, October 10\, 2024 at 7:30PM\nEast Village Arts of Birmingham\n7611 1st Ave N\, Birmingham\, AL 35206\nFree Admission \nIron Giant Free Association premieres new music by local composers in boundary-stretching performance. \nIron Giant has worked with members of the Birmingham Art Music Alliance to create a group of flexible compositions that reward creative investment from performers and audiences alike. The details of each piece are changeable\, so the sounds differ from performance to performance. This is the first concert of a series of programs\, with the following compositions receiving their world premiere. \n\nIron Segments – Michael Coleman\nArmature – Monroe Golden / Iron Giant\nas reflected in the glimmer of the black pond – Holland Hopson\ndifferance – Mark Lackey\nThus Spoke the Giant – Joseph Landers\nVersicles for Aries – Kyle McGucken\nImprovisation – LaDonna Smith / Iron Giant\n\nThis activity is supported by Alabama State Council on the Arts. \nIron Giant Free Association evolved from Iron Giant Percussion\, with the quartet of founders — Sam Herman\, Brett Huffman\, Seth Noble\, and Justin Wallace — remaining as core members. Established in 2011 and based in Birmingham (AL)\, the ensemble has performed alongside artists such as Sō Percussion\, Third Coast Percussion\, Glenn Kotche of Wilco\, and Norman Westberg of Swans. Iron Giant has collaborated with many Alabama music & arts mainstays including the Birmingham Art Music Alliance\, Sanspointe Dance Company\, John Scalici\, and the UAB Percussion Ensemble. Their eclectic vocabulary of chamber music\, ambient\, noise\, and post rock\, combined with meditative improvisatory sensibilities makes for a listening experience both cerebral and visceral. \nThe Birmingham Art Music Alliance (BAMA) is a nonprofit organization with the twofold mission of promoting music by Alabama composers and presenting concerts of recently created art music to communities in Birmingham and beyond. Members include local composers\, professional performers\, students\, and enthusiasts who wish to preserve and maintain the long tradition of music as a living art form. \nEast Village Arts is a membership based co-operative of artists\, musicians\, and patrons\, who believe that diversity and collective creativity is the strength of a healthy community. \nhttp://irongiantbhm.com\nhttp://artmusic.org\nhttp://evabham.org \nShare this:Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window)Click to share on Twitter (Opens in new window)
