Final Night: Sameer Gupta's Residency Finale - Terry Riley's 'In C' 🎶
Join us for a truly monumental conclusion to Sameer Gupta's residency at WyldFlowr Arts in Oakland! This isn't just a concert; it's a collective, transformative experience featuring an epic rendition of Terry Riley's seminal masterpiece, 'In C.'
The Ensemble & The Experience
Composed in 1964, 'In C' is a foundational piece of minimalist music—an open-ended, indeterminate score of 53 short musical phrases. The magic lies in the ensemble: musicians play through the phrases at their own pace, creating a constantly shifting, dazzling sonic tapestry.
For this special closing night, Sameer Gupta has assembled a massive and diverse Bay Area roster of fine musicians to perform this spectacular work. Prepare for an immersive, deeply felt sonic journey that will be both mesmerizing and exhilarating—one 75-minute-long musical exploration like no other!
