Sidecar is
Anne Hege, vocalist and composer, and Heather Heise, pianist. Inspired by the eponymous song by Charles Ives, The Children's Hour is a 75 minute program featuring the music of Façade by William Walton, as well as art songs and piano pieces by Ives, John Cage, Jim Tenney, and Bunita Marcus et al. Sidecar's original audio and visual design, which includes interactive electronics and sound processing, tape compositions, and video, provides a nervy counterpoint to vintage texts by Edith Sitwell and Longfellow. The menagerie of game and play is an eight year old's imagination cracked open, punctuated by expert vocal and musical evocations of intrigue and nightmare: Between the dark and the daylight, comes a pause in the day's occupations that is known as Children’s Hour.
