Uptown/Downtown Series - Mikel Rouse's Music for Minorities

Contemporary Arts Center

8pm

Michael Rouse

An illustration of memory -
- The views of the silent minority

Mikel Rouse, best known for his groundbreaking trilogy of multimedia operas (Failing Kansas, Dennis Cleveland, The End of Cinematics), tours his one-man show Music for Minorities, incorporating music, video and stories from America. This is a rare chance to get an intimate look at an artist The New York Times has called "... a composer many believe to be the best of his generation."

Music for Minorities is a recorded soundscape of percussion and multiple guitars accompanied by a live, multi-disciplinary performance that incorporates stories, vernacular songs with synchronized video, and interviews with Louisiana and New York personalities.
