$5-$20 donation at the door
- Elisa Thorn, harp
Canadian experimental harpist/composer Elisa Thorn presents an improvised concert with a special guest, creating abstract, bold, and sensitive sound worlds.
Elisa Thorn is a harpist/composer living in Vancouver, BC. Combining her technical classical background, exploration of electronic processing and experience working in a variety of contemporary music worlds, Elisa’s music is propelled by two artistic objectives: firstly, how to create music that is both abstract and accessible; and secondly, how to lead a band with harp in a way that does not compromise sensitivity with its boldness, or generosity with its curiosity. Interested in the intersection between composed and improvised music, she is involved with many projects including HUE, The Giving Shapes, and Gentle Party.
Elisa will be joined by a special guest to create a compelling electroacoustic sound world designed to leave you wondering where the sounds came from. Emerging and dissolving into an ambient landscape, you may hear her influences from Pauline Oliveros, Vijay Iyer, Björk, Radiohead, Arthur Russell, Stevie Wonder, Fiona Apple, Debussy, and the distinct style of the West Coast creative music scene.
COVID-19 Protocols: Following current mandates from King County & WA State public health officials, proof of vaccination status or recent negative COVID test result will be required for entry, and all audience members will be required to wear a mask covering nose and mouth. Windows will be open, weather permitting.
