Les Boréades

Calendar IconMarch 26, 2021 @ 6:00 PM PST

When we presented Les Boréades over a year ago, quarantines and social distancing were impossible to imagine, and the joy of creating something fresh and wonderful was exactly the point. We present to you this concert film of our pre-pandemic collaboration with artist Brad Johnson, Glowbox, and the virtuosos of 45th Parallel Universe, performed on January 17, 2020, at the Portland Institute for Contemporary Art.
