SUMMARY:CRS Presents Crossing Boundaries Concert Series #19:  Careful in the Sun
DESCRIPTION:CRS presents Crossing Boundaries Concert Series Vol. 19\, curated by Maya Keren. Careful In The Sun traverses a verdant landscape of collective improvisation grounded in loops and songs by Maya Keren. The collective (Eliza Salem on drums\, Anna Abondolo on fretless bass and voice\, Emmanuel Michael on electric guitar\, Eden Girma on voice and electronics\, and Maya Keren on piano and voice) find their center in lush harmonies and cathartic hooks underlaid with the strange and spontaneous logic of dreams. In this concert\, they will inhabit the space together to let their songs bloom and breathe\, offering an opportunity for connection\, healing\, and joyfulness. \nTickets are available on eventbrite.com for $20 ($10 for students) or for cash at the door. \nProof of vaccination is NOT required but we encourage (but don’t require) you to wear masks\, and if you are feeling sick\, please play it safe and stay home. \nABOUT CROSSING BOUNDARIES CONCERT SERIES \nCROSSING BOUNDARIES is a concert series devoted to dissolving boundaries between performers and audiences\, the traditional and contemporary\, classical and experimental\, and the culturally specific and the global. Series curators are given the opportunity to create unique performance events in collaboration with musical\, visual\, and/or movement artists of their choosing. The series was conceived in 2018 by the Korean traditional wind player and composer gamin\, who has continued to help curate the series each year. https://crsny.org/crossing-boundaries-concert-series/ \nCrossing Boundaries is made possible in part with public funds from Creative Engagement\, supported by the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs in partnership with the City Council and the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of Governor Andrew Cuomo and administered by LMCC.
