Rova:Arts presents Rovaté 2006, an annual celebration of improvised music and other arts, featuring the World Premiere performances of GlassHead—a major collaboration among the
Rova Saxophone Quartet, Butoh-inspired dance collective inkBoat (featuring Shinichi Momo Koga and Yuko Kaseki), and multimedia artist Eric Koziol.
Bringing together the worlds of sound, vision, and movement, GlassHead will explore the realms of 21st-century assumptions, oppositions, and suspicions—the sanctity of thoughts, protection vs. isolation, stability and fragility, and more. With artistic roots in the U.S., Japan, Europe, and beyond, this expansive, evening-length work will inspire both surprise and sudden recognition, as these facets of contemporary life take shape on-stage as we experience them in our daily lives—in the moment, and without warning.
Cost: $18-20
