Terry Riley changed the course of music with his 1964 In C - and 38 years later, he’s still going strong. Last April, MIT FAST audiences thrilled to the Kronos Quartet & Wu Man’s performance of his Cusp of Magic - now is your chance to hear the man himself…
Galak Tika has been bringing its own blend of traditional & experimental Balinese gamelan to Boston audiences since 1993 - don’t miss this latest genre-bending collaboration!
