Quarter 3: The music of Murakami

2012-01-29T09:56:49-08:00By Erin Malley|Categories: CounterPULSE, Winter Special 2012|Tags: Bert Bergen, Classical, Dance, Erin Malley, Haruki Murakami, interdisciplinary, Jazz, music, san francisco, theater|

Last week, I was lucky enough to attend "Beyond the Veil" at CounterPULSE. The evening, a mix of music, performance and visuals was an experience I have been needing to have. Lily Taylor took the stage and presented the audience a rare opportunity to see a music artist pair her work with performance artists inspired by music.
