Happy Hour No. 123: Sounds Mysterious with Brian Lauritzen

Few musicians possess the cojones and humility to perform music blind. And by “blind,” we do NOT mean sightreading; the musicians have practiced and rehearsed!
Rather, we mean the musicians don’t know what they’re playing. Not the composer, the piece title, when and where it was written… nada.
Sounds Mysterious is a musical scavenger hunt in which the musicians and audience solve those mysteries together.
This time, all of Salastina’s Resident Artists have chosen a short piece to stump everyone else in the ensemble.
The music our Resident Artists have chosen is readily accessible, consummately listenable, and delightfully unexpected. We can’t be more specific about the repertoire. But we can promise:
laughter, collegiality, and plenty of razzing amongst the musicians
ample opportunities to hear audience members’ intuitions and insights — and share your own
the joy of musical discovery
Mimosa and pastry reception with the artists to follow.
