Benefit for saxophonist Andrew D'Angelo
featuring:
Seth Misterka's Beco: Beco is a free-form improvisers collective led by saxophonist Seth Misterka.
Mike Pride's From Bacteria to Boys: From Bacteria to Boys blurs the lines between hyper-rhythmic modern-jazz, vocal chant, 20th/21st century classical music & raw Rn'B all with an intensity and center of focus anyone familiar with Pride's music has come to expect. The trio's first CD "Hang" came out on Funhole Records in 2006 and they are currently finishing up work on a new album to be out in late 2008. Mike Pride: drums; Darius Jones: alto sax; and Evan Lipson: bass.

Noise! is a sound performance festival started in 2005. free103point9 curates for the second year. Each year the "Incubator" program at Ontological Theater hosts a Noise! festival, a three-night multi-arts event designed to promote interest in new forms of sound art. The festival will feature short compositions and performances by established and emerging artists. Each evening opens with a Radio 4x4 as the audience enters the theater. Radio 4x4 is a free103point9 collaborative radio transmission performance. Four simultaneous audio performances are separately sent through FM transmitters to radios positioned throughout a performance space. Each radio receives only one of the signals, so that the audience becomes an active collaborator in the performance, "mixing" the audio feeds by moving about the space among the four signals. Other artists will perform each evening. Tianna Kennedy, Tom Roe, and Damian Catera will curate each evening.
