CJM plays Cage with Ensemble L'Arsenale - Treviso, Italy

On 9 November, CJM makes his Italian debut performing during an all-Cage program in Treviso with local ensemble L'Arsenale. The event includes McIntyre's realization of Variations IV (1963), as well as selections from Freeman Etudes (1977-90) by internationally renowned violinist Marco Fusi, various works for percussion by Simone Beneventi, and selections from Sonatas and Interludes (1948) by Roberto Durante. The concert, along with a lecture by Italian composer and musicologist Marco Lenzi and multi-channel sound presentation by Giorgio Klauer, is being co-presented (with l’Ordine degli Architetti) throughout the Ex Palazzo della Provincia di Treviso, an unused, architecturally beautiful 1960's local government building near the center of "the little Venice." 

From L'arsenale Facebook Event page:
"Una grande festa dedicata a John Cage presso lo spazio sorprendente dell’ex-palazzo della Provincia dove L’arsenale rianimerà le stanze vuote con lavori scritti dal compositore americano o da artisti che a lui si sono ispirati. Installazioni, concerti, elettronica, funghi..."
