>Dear bListers,
>
>Jon Raskin and I are putting together a concert series this spring and
>we have invited Vinny Golia to come up from LA and lead a large ensemble
>that would play his music. This announcement is an invitation to play on
>this concert. Vinny has a long-standing large ensemble of 40 musicians,
>mostly LA folks, but for this concert we will play his music with
>(mostly) bay area folks.
>
>Sight reading skills would be a great plus, and improvising skills
>essential. Vinny writes difficult stuff to read sometimes, but his
>attitude is not unlike Braxton's "jump or die" concept...play it to the
>best of your ability and make the best music you can.
>
>We're looking for winds, strings & percussion. There may be electronics
>involved, but I'm waiting to hear back from Vinny; he is supposed to
>send a roster of preferred instruments shortly.
>
>The concert will be at 21 Grand on Wednesday, April 19th. There will
>probably be a rehearsal, and Vinny says he can send parts to us
>beforehand.
>
>If you're interested (regardless of your instrument) in participating,
>please write to me at:

>Feel free to write with any questions you might have.
