Five Weeks Away in NYC!

Tilted Axes: The Longest Night — Dec. 21 in NYC

5:00-7:00pm at The Hugh plaza, 601 Lexington

at E 53rd Street (The Citicorp Building)

Part of Make Music New York's Make Music Winter 2023

 

Tilted Axes: Music for Mobile Electric Guitars is an orchestra of guitarists who perform original, untethered music via portable mini-amps accompanied by percussionists. The project is informed by urban street band traditions, avant-garde theater and ancient music, and creates interactive spectacles that spark community conversation. The program includes three numbers — “Standing Still,” “Tiltinnabulation,” and Philip Glass’ “Knee Play 3” from Einstein on the Beach — with participatory handbell roles to transform the audience into music makers, no experience necessary. Presented in partnership with BXP.

 

Tilted Axes is a project of Peppergreen Media and is powered by VOX Amplification USA courtesy of KORG US. We thank our performance partners Strange Music Inc. and The Alchemical Studios.

 

Taking New Music Out Into The World — The 12th season of Tilted Axes is made possible in part by the New York State Council on the Arts (NYSCA) with the support of the Governor and the New York State Legislature, the (ASCAP) Plus+ Awards, the NYU Tisch School of the Arts Adjunct Development Fund, but mostly through the generous support of you the public through our fiscal sponsor Fractured Atlas.

Thank you, EVERYONE, who joined us for this upcoming season at https://tinyurl.com/Tilted12. We made, and even exceeded, our goal. That means we broke even and then some. The campaign still runs for a day or so. Everything we receive as above-and-beyond means more shows that we can add, more players that can be a part, and more FREE performances. If you come to this page often, like our content, leave comments, why not make it official? We still have Tilted swag, so please, go to our Fall Fundraiser page, join our team, and let's create the best season of new music together yet! 💥
