*House Concert V with Andrew Weathers, Jeremy Bleich, and Mark Weaver
*

*Tuesday, July 3*

*$10-20 suggested single-day membership*


*All ages*


An evening featuring 3 modern composers: Andrew Weathers (Oakland), Jeremy
Bleich (Santa Fe), Mark Weaver (Albuquerque).

This is the fifth in a series of chamber music concerts that started in
2009 as a house concert series. It has since moved in larger venues like
High Mayhem. Its primary goal is to provide new acoustic works from living
composers in an intimate setting without sound reinforcement, giving the
listener the experience of hearing the instruments up close in a small
space.

Russell Scharf – flugelhorn; Josh Yellon – tenor sax (from Los Lunas via
Berlin, Cleveland); Christian Pincock – valve trombone; Paul Bossert –
tenor trombone; Mark Weaver – Tuba

They will debut Jeremy Bleich’s quintet “Suite for Brass: six short pieces
for quintet” and a piece by Mark Weaver “Gelon of Syracuse” for quintet.

Andrew Weathers
Andrew Weathers is a young American composer and improviser originally from
Chapel Hill, NC currently based in Oakland, CA. His music exists in a space
between improvisation and composition – equally influenced by the 20th
century American minimalists and underground noise. He has a BM in Music
Composition from the University of North Carolina – Greensboro, and is
currently pursuing an MFA in Electronic Music at Mills College.

Andrew performs rigorously in a variety of contexts, both composed and
improvised. In addition to solo performances, he heads up the Andrew
Weathers Ensemble. He also performs and records regularly with Kirtan
Choir, Weathers/Glover, Tethers, and Parties. In the past, he has performed
with Acid of All Ruins, Bicameral Mind, Northern Valentine, Tatsuya
Nakatani, Laurent Estoppey, and Hal McGee, among others.

In addition to his busy performing schedule, Weathers helps run Full
Spectrum Records, a label dedicated to releasing works by young musicians
in unique forms and limited editions.
