Loads of Zorn, Tzadik and Related 2009 tour Dates

Including some dates with our friends Mr Patton and T Dunn.
February 5 to April 5 2009 – Ontological-Hysteric Theatre, New York
ASTRONOME: A NIGHT AT THE OPERA
Ontological Theater, 131 E. 10th St.
, New York, 10003
Richard Foreman is one of the most important theatre directors in the world, and has been a personal hero of Zorn’s for over 30 years. These two masters of the bizarre have now collaborated on a theatre/music piece and it is opening on February 5th at the Ontological-Hysteric Theatre at St Marks in the Bowery, New York City. This is one of those things that can only happen downtown-independent of any special grants, funding, institution or administration. ASTRONOME is the intense second Moonchild CD featuring Mike Patton, Trevor Dunn and Joey Baron, and Richard Foreman’s staging of it is absolutely stunning.
Please make a special effort to see this once in a lifetime event, opening FEBRUARY 5 AND RUNNING FOR ONLY TWO MONTHS!

Lukas Ligeti is the son of Gyorgy Ligeti, who was a pretty huge figure in 20th Century contemporary-classical music. Gyorgy Ligeti made some pretty amazing out-there kind of stuff. If you’ve seen The Shining or 2001: A Space Odyssey you’ll have heard his stuff – most of the really creepy atmospheric passages are his. They were what he called his “micropolyphonic” compositions.
His son’s stuff is just as amazing, but feels like it comes from a younger generation (which is a good thing). I’ve only heard one of his records, which is Afrikan Machinery. Came out on Tzadik last year: http://www.tzadik.com/index.php?catalog=8054
Here’s his MySpace: http://www.myspace.com/lukasligeti
P.S. The cheapest place to buy his new record is through his website at this location: http://www.lukasligeti.com/RECORDINGS/1.php?id=57
