Terry Riley
December 5, 2014; 7:30 p.m.; Gallery B
Programmed by Sarah Cahill
Five years ago, Terry Riley played at our very first L@TE event, and we are elated to have him return to close out the series. Pioneer of the minimalist aesthetic, seminal influence on the Velvet Underground and Sonic Youth, devotee of Hindustani classical music as well as jazz, Riley remains one of the most dynamic compositional voices of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. He will joined by his son, guitarist and composer Gyan Riley. Don’t miss your last chance to hear his sublime music reverberate through our vast architecture.
Galleries will remain open until 10:30 p.m. for this special event. A limited number of chairs will be available; please bring a pillow to make yourself comfortable on the gallery floor, or listen from the upper gallery balconies during the performance.
L@TE is made possible by the continued support of the BAM/PFA Trustees and the Office of the Executive Vice Chancellor and Provost, UC Berkeley. Piano generously provided by Piedmont Piano Company. Sound system generously provided by Meyer Sound.
