Oakland Active Music Series: Free Improv Jazz Concerts | The Uptown
Oakland Active Orchestra performs a free ongoing monthly residence at The Uptown in Oakland on every second Tuesday of the month.
Oakland Active Orchestra explores various innovative and traditional techniques in composition and free improvisation. Each month, new compositions written by members of the fourteen piece ensemble will be presented and two other groups will perform.
Doors open at 9 pm. Show starts at 9:30 pm. There’s no cover, but donations are welcome.
The Uptown Nightclub is closed as of November 6, 2014.
Active Music Series presents SFSound In C, Malocculsion and Gosling.
- sfSoundOrchestra celebrates the 50th anniversary of Terry Riley’s “In C” and the “App Release Party” of “In C” for iPad created by sfSound’s Matt Ingalls and Henry Warwick from Ryerson University (Toronto)
- Malocculsion uses voice, tapes, loops, homemade electronics, and field recordings to create a dark mirror of the unknown through audio and visual trap door psychosis and high tension performances.
- Gosling is an electro-acoustic soundscape project that uses analog machines and acapella effects.
