If you like your music new, in a unique space, and with abstract dance, you might like Graveyards and Gardens, music by Caroline Shaw, movement by Vanessa Goodman, in the Bodecker skate bowl.
Caroline Shaw https://carolineshaw.com/ is a composer noted for being the youngest Pulitzer awardee for music. She is a prolific composer and collaborator. Her instruments are violin and voice. Her compositions have expanded to other instruments and up to date spoken word samples and electronic effects on the voice as an instrument.
Tonight her work Graveyards and Gardens is a collaboration with modern dancer Vanessa Goodman. Shaw is based on the East Coast, and Goodman on the West Coast in Vancouver, BC.
A description wins our copywriting award: "A dance. A concert. A curious analogue-driven performance experience. A visual and sonic album of reconstructed memories and distortions. Revealed in an immersive environment of nature and technology. The warm glow lure of antiquated innovations and embodied experience. It’s a living album that continues to fold and unfold into itself. Digging deep into the beauty of how the body remembers." I saw this, it is strongly recommended.
