You will be inside the music as we present Terry Riley’s mesmerizing experimental work In C, with musicians surrounding the audience on all four sides of our outdoor arcade.
While fully notated, In C is never the same twice. It consists of 53 short segments, or modules, that each performer progresses through, with all players synchronized to a repeated pulse. So how does it vary from performance to performance? Each player chooses how many times to repeat each module, and also how long to rest before starting the following module. So, although all players play the same melodies and rhythms in the same order, the aggregate is different every time.
