Adam & Mia hit Baroque Pop at Rococo Art party

Adam and I are playing my favorite all out smashing Baroque/Rococo Night!! We will probably go on at 10:30. I am going to channel my favorite harpist Marie Antoinette, so get out your Ouija Boards.

Where: Galapagos Art Space, 16 Main Street, DUMBO, Brooklyn, NYC (just one subway stop out of Manhattan) (www.galapagosartspace.com)
Saturday, March 28, 9pm

The extravagance of 1770 rococo Paris meets the eclecticism of 2009 underground New York nightlife.

Think Amadeus, Marie Antoinette, the Marquis de Sade, etc… but with a thoroughly modern twist.

This 4th installment of the Party will feature burlesque, aerialism, spectacles, hula hoop acrobatics, magic, juggling, baroque “makeovers”, fortune telling, live art, and live techno baroque and rococo rock music.

My piece Sea Nymphs opened the second half of Adam Dugas’ Chaos and Candy. I am lucky to have worked with such amazing dancers, an aerialist and a great choreographer in NYC.

I will play a dance piece I composed called Nymphs-this is an amazing show!!!

Set sail for a psychedelic spectacular with the 7th annual installment of CHAOS & CANDY, the seasonal extravaganza from Adam Dugas. The S.S. St. Nicholas is embarking on a Brazilian-bound holiday cruise, but a sea-change is in store because the vessel is loaded with explosive surprises! A dynamite cast of singers and dancers, backed by a rock orchestra, delivers this story of terrorists in love and undersea antics. It’s a full fathom fiesta. Don’t turn your back on the sea!

I was on set for the grand finale “Evicted” for the HBO series  Flight of the Conchords to help with all things harp. I taught David how to look like he was playing, tuned the harp, helped with the dialog to make sure the actors had their facts correct and was a music tech. Unfortunately they opted for a generic music library for the actual music. The picture is on Set while Mel’s husband David does his harp moves.
