  • Raquel Acevedo Klein Announces American Composers Orchestra at DiMenna Center on October 23

    American Composers Orchestra will be hosting a live in-person and streaming multimedia event, New Canons, featuring Raquel Acevedo Klein’s interactive composition. After her debut of her newest work, Polyphonic Interlace at Little Island, Raquel is ready to dazzle us again at New Canons. The performance is scheduled virtually and in-person at multiple locations for Saturday, October 23 at 2:15pm.

    American Composers Orchestra

    The hybrid in-person and virtual concert composers focus on incorporating latency as part of their music. That is the delay between live and transmitted sound will be an integral part of each piece. American Composers Orchestra and Groupmuse Foundation has collected composers that are interested in experimenting with technology and latency in their music with their interactive works.

    We welcome one another into a collective landscape in which all sounds become music.The symphonious, surround-sound composition  Raquel Acevedo Polyphonic Interlace will actually invite attendees to play the piece’s musical tracks from their smartphones creating a sea of voices from several directions. Latency Canons from Ray Lustig incorporates multiple string quartets and an orchestra yet each performer will be dispersed across the room while they play in unison. Trevor New’s Cohere will use technology to manipulate latency for remote musicians . Pauline Oliveros‘ Environmental Dialogue procures an interactive element where attendees are invited to respond to sounds. All Possible Music from Chris Kallmyer may be just what you think it is where it will be a work that describes all of the music imaginable by.

    American Composers Orchestra will perform at the DiMenna Center conducted by Peter Askim. The Bergamot Quartet will perform at the Murray Hill Groupmuse location. Ligeti Quartet and Alexandra Quartet play from the United Kingdom with seven selected soloists who will participate remotely from locations around the world.

    There will be a myriad of venues where you may choose to experience this performance at a public gathering space, as an intimate concert in a private home, or as a fully digital event.

    Concert Hall tickets at New Canons at DiMenna Center and Private Home tickets – New Canons in Murray Hill (Event address will be provided upon reservation) are $25 each, with a Virtual Event reservation $5, with a $20 suggested donation, streamed via Virtual New Canons (Streaming link provided 24 hours before event.) Doors open at 2:00pm and music will begin promptly at 2:15pm.

  • Donny Frauenhofer Trio (DF3) to Celebrate Debut Album Release at Sportsmens Tavern

    Buffalo’s Donny Frauenhofer Trio will celebrate the culmination of a decade of work as they take the next step as a live band, releasing their debut album on Friday, October 22. The night before, the trio will perform at Sportsmen’s Tavern.

    Donny Frauenhofer Trio, also known as DF3, consists of Isaiah Griffin on drums, Colin Brydalski on bass, and Frauenhofer on keys. Coined as “The Weirdest Music You’ve Never Heard,” Donny’s trio is creatively driven by spontaneity. The group travels through time signatures, styles, and key signatures with ease, making Frauenhofer’s complicated compositions sound like a walk in the park. The group plays a daring brand of original music with unique arrangements of popular tunes tastefully sprinkled in. 

    Donny Frauenhofer Trio Debut Album

    With an album full of originals, two notable covers get a jazz treatment, with DF3 approaching Pink Floyd’s “Another Brick in the Wall” and Fall Out Boy’s “Sugar We’re Goin Down” as though they are entirely new compositions,

    The album has taken 10 years to get here, although the trio didn’t start until about 2016, playing consistently starting in 2018. There is also the factor of capturing the music, learning the language of music and studying all the aspects of playing and performing it. 10 years ago, Frauenhofer did not see the dream of being signed on a label and just making music as possible or as probable as many of his peers. He saw where things were heading with the music business and how to monetize it, so he set out to learn as much as possible about recording, engineering, mixing, mastering, and producing as much as I could.

    Frauenhofer didn’t want to release an album until he felt he was somewhat capable of doing the quality he wanted for himself. 10 years of digging into jazz and trying to find his own sound, that is when many compositions took root. He would often tell friends “I had this sound in my head I couldn’t describe,” and a lot of artists he was a fan of were in that realm, but Frauenhofer had a particular vibe, an air or atmosphere that he wanted to capture.

    Regarding the jazz scene in Buffalo, Frauenhofer notes the great deal of talent in the scene, with a small but passionate audience that is continuing to grow.

    My goal is to get more of my generation involved. A lot of this album reflects that – using contemporary styles from my generation and putting that in a jazz setting, or vice-versa. Electronic music styles and hip-hop in particular can really get young crowds excited and be a great window into more traditional styles of jazz

    Donny Frauenhofer, on the Buffalo Jazz scene

    The album release show will take place on Thursday, October 21st at Sportsmens Tavern in Buffalo. The show kicks off at 7pm with the band playing two sets of music, with physical copies of Uppin’ the Ante available at the show. Guest musicians will also be performing with the trio.

    The release of this upcoming album marks the distinctive transformation of #DF3 from a local live act to a burgeoning national touring force. Uppin’ the Ante will be available on all streaming platforms on Friday, October 22nd. Along with this exciting release, the band will soon be announcing tour dates for the remainder of 2021. 

    Donny Frauenhofer Trio perform on Thursday, October 21 at 7:00 PM Sportsmens Tavern. Tickets are $12 and available here, with additional info available via the Facebook event.

The energy that Nth Power taps into is something almost sensual, spiritual, and sexy. They prove that music can be a higher power which might just be relentlessly funky and soulful. While Nth Power does transcend genre audiences hear influences from American rock, soul, funk, rhythm and blues. The latest album, Reverence offers the utmost maturity of the trio’s sound conveying messages of hope, empathy, gratitude, self-forgiveness and, above all, the universal power of love. They tap into an energy that is simultaneously sexy and spiritual, with songs that will inspire audiences to dance, groove, make love or just stand there with goosebumps.

    We’re going as far as you can go on planet Earth as musicians. We want to change the world through music – that’s the goal

  • Experience Night of The Living Musical at The Hangar Theater in Ithaca

    On Saturday, October 23, Ithaca’s Hangar Theater will host a fall day to remember. Broadway Jazz Star Julie Benko will headline the day’s festivities. She was awarded the Gold Metal and Johnny Mercer award at the 2017 American Tradition vocal Competition as well as the Wilde Award for best leading actress in a musical as Girl in Once.

    The music will be handled by accompanist Jeff Theiss, with a very appropriate October vibe as Jeff was the musical director for the romantic story of “Ghost the Musical” at The Merry-go Round Playhouse on Owasco Lake. Julie’s voice, who has been part of the 85th Academy Awards and the 70th Academy Award ceremonies, will carry soft across Cayuga Lake next Saturday evening. She just welcomed a new cat into her family named Thelonius Monk. Musical chameleon Benko said “I want the listener to know exactly where they are and feel like they have been dropped in the middle of a scene”.

    The scene at The Hangar Theater on October 23 will be fitting for you to win best costume by dressing as your favorite musical character. On July 11, 1975, the Hangar Theatre opened with Man of La Mancha, thanks to more than a decade’s effort by impassioned citizens in Ithaca. So this week put the same craft in planning your Saturday nights look. You will have chances to win many getaway evenings at Williams Henry Miller Inn, Firelight Camps, and Cayuga Lake Cottage. You can board the Cayuga Lake Boat Cruise. A pair of tickets to a show at The Hangar and State Theater will also be experienced in “Gorges” Ithaca and more.

    Hangar Theater

    The show will be held on the heated outdoor stage for one more Saturday night October 23rd 2021. Arrive by 3PM to begin with drinks and hors d’oeuvres. 3:30 will be the Hangar news welcome. Julie Benko will perform songs from beloved musicals, classic and contemporary performances from 4:00 to 4:40.

    Hangar Theater
