The Long Count - Oct 28, 30, 31 2009 @ BAM
Hi everyone!
We wanted to let you know that tickets have gone on-sale today for the “The Long Count” at Brooklyn Academy of Music on October 28th, 30th and 31st.The Long Count is a collaboration between Aaron and Bryce Dessner and the artist Matthew Ritchie. The 70-minute piece features an animated film by Ritchie, a 14 piece ensemble and songs developed with Matt Berninger, Kim & Kelley Deal (Pixies/Breeders) and Shara Worden (My Brightest Diamond).The piece is loosely based on the Mayan creation myth Popol Vuh which features twin brothers. We hope you’ll come check it out!
You can find information and tickets here: http://www.bam.org/view.aspx?pid=1263
We’ll update you on the new album we’re working on later in the Fall or Winter.
Thanks
