Greg Haymes from Albany Times Union loved the All Stars concert on Saturday. We hope you did too.
AND a note about the Marathon this Saturday. We’ve been promoting the performance of the mixed media oratorio Shelter in conjunction with Ridge Theater but we should make it clear that the films for the work are by Bill Morrison and the projections are by Laurie Olinder. Don’t miss this great weekend of music.
I will be posting a short highlight video from the Bang on a Can gallery recitals everyday. If you like what you see, consider joining us for these performances everyday (except Sundays) in the galleries at 1:30 and 4:30 through July 26, or go visit the MASS MoCA YouTube page for more information about the performances and higher quality videos of the 4:30 performances from each day.
Speaking of YouTube, I noticed this morning that we are ranked as the #40 most viewed non profit YouTube page of the day, and #53 of the week! We are going to be adding new video everyday while Bang on a Can is here, so keep visiting and help us move up the list.
