Coleman Hall
While admission is free, we ask that you reserve a ticket.
Some 900 members of our community heard the Kronos Quartet perform The Sea Ranch Songs as part of the celebration of The Sea Ranchs 50th anniversary. Composed by Aleksandra Vrebalov with videography by Andrew Lyndon, the Songs were performed by Kronos in the White Barn during May of 2015, and they drew rave reviewsas well as many calls for a recording of them.
Thanks to very generous local donors, that call has now been answered: A CD/DVD set will be released by Cantaloupe Music this fall. To celebrate, a special screening of the DVD will take place on September 30, 2016, at 7 p.m. in Gualala Arts Centers Coleman Hall. Free and open to the entire community, this event provides an opportunity to experience the magnificent songs and evocative film again. Both Aleksandra Vrebalov and Andrew Lyndon will be on hand for the screening as well as for a discussion afterwards.
In writing about The Sea Ranch Songs, composer Vrebalov and David Harrington, founder of the Kronos Quartet, said
"There are very few places in the whole world where an entire community is dedicated to live, build, and interact with its surroundings in harmonious ways. We celebrate the nature, people and architecture of this magical place by creating a piece with original music, documented sounds, and visual samples of different aspects of life and creativity in this rare landscape where people and nature are intertwined in a healthy union. This idea on a global scale may be utopian, but through music we will praise its beauty and affirm its urgent relevance in our wounded world so much in need of healing."
Please join us for this special event. While admission is free, we ask that you reserve a ticket. Seating in Coleman Hall is somewhat limited, so sign up soon!
