*More about TRIANGLE RHYSING:MUSIC FOR MASSED GUITARS:
*An original suite for multiple groups of electric guitars, TRIANGLE
RHYSING was created as a way for local musicians to collaborate on a
massive scale.  First performed in 2011 with twenty-two musicians, the 2012
reprise of TR included an ensemble of nearly three dozen.    For this third
outing, TR will feature more than 50 guitarists + drums + cello and, for
the first time, vocals -- nearly 60 musicians in all.  TR is composed and
conducted by Andras Fekete and Matthew Guess.

*"...When Rhys Chatham, Glenn Branca or any other composer gathers several
guitarists—from three to 1,000—in one space, the generally accepted term is
"massed guitar symphony." But that phrase puts the guitarists in an
unnecessary and incorrect box of polity and high society; indeed, though
Chatham and Branca make precisely composed and arranged music, the same
impulse that drives a teenager to buy a cheap six-string and plug into a
cheap Peavey amplifier isn't so far removed from the impulse behind letting
dozens of guitarists do the same. It's catharsis by volume, victory by
overtone, glory by sound. To wit, the idea first occurred to Chatham after
he saw The Ramones play in New York in the late '70s. Triangle Rhysing
explores this idea... Get ready to feel the sound."* —Grayson Currin, THE

*More about BRYCE CLAYTON EIMAN*:
*"...a fugue for chainsaws, magnetic interference and electrocuted
elephants, [Eiman] locates a surprising diversity of hue... Chaotic bass
waves and richly textured distortion build until they scream like rending
sheet metal, actual chords dropping out like sprung rivets... On the whole,
it evokes one of Richard Serra's massive metal sculptures — not the calm,
elegant final shapes, but the brutally physical process that creates
them."*—Brian Howe, THE INDEPENDENT WEEKLY
