The
first set will feature Trio Minus, with
oboist Thomas Parisch and guitarist Yoon Lee, performing music by tango master,
Astor Piazzolla. The two musicians met studying at the Berklee College of Music
in Boston and joined forces years later after moving to L.A. Both are
performer/composers who move freely in the worlds of classical, jazz, world and
folk music. Thomas Parisch also writes music for film, television and video
games, including Resident Evil 6.

Classical
Revolution: L.A.
In
the three years since its inception, Classical Revolution: L.A. has presented
over 50 chamber music events in relaxed, accessible venues throughout the
greater Los Angeles area. The group makes "chamber music cozy comfy in
bars, clubs, coffee shops" and more "unexpected hangouts." (L.A.
Weekly) Mark Swed of the L.A. Times called it an "addictive new
series," that can make chamber music "startlingly subversive."
Classical Revolution was founded in 2006 at the Revolution Cafe in San
Francisco. The Classical Revolution model has spread around the world, with
over 30 active chapters in cities around the US, Canada and Europe.
