You really owe it to yourself to go to Third Angle New Music Ensemble’s Maximum Minimalism program this coming Friday, January 23 at 7:30 pm at Reed College Kaul Auditorium.

For one, you’ll be hearing one of the great new music ensembles in town, featuring some of Portland’s top local musicians.  You’ll also be present to hear a rare live performance of a seminal masterpiece of 20th century music,  Steve Reich’s Music for 18 Musicians, as well as music by Philip Glass – his Piece in the Shape of a Square for 2 Flutes – and a Hal Hartley film – The New Math(s) – scored by the Dutch iconoclast composer Louis Andriessen, with the soundtrack performed live by Third Angle musicians.

It should be a great show.

Tickets may be purchased online at brown paper tickets, or by phone at 1-800-838-3006.  Tickets are $30/$25.
