2nd Other Minds Séance

Last year's was so successful that we're doing it again in February. Another othermindly Séance! Saturday, February 24, 2007.

Pianist Sarah Cahill and the Stenberg-Zimmermann Duo play spiritualist music, lullabies, and meditations in three concerts in this all-day musical marathon in the candlelit surroundings of Bernard Maybeck's Swedenborgian Church in San Francisco.

The program this year is even more impressive than last. From Antheil to Ziporyn! Click on the "Continue" link below to see how impressive it really is.

The Other Minds New Music Séance marathon will be three distinct concerts on Saturday, February 24, 2007—Concert I, “Nature Vivante” at 2pm; Concert II, “The Immovable Do” at 5:30pm; and Concert III, “Sleepwalker’s Shuffle” at 8pm—at Swedenborgian Church, 2107 Lyon Street, San Francisco. Tickets for individual concerts are $20-$35-$50 (sliding scale); a series pass for all three concerts is available for $50, $100, or $150. Last year's Séance sold out, and seating is limited to 110 persons per show, so early ticket purchase is recommended. Tickets are on sale now, at www.BrownPaperTickets.com or by calling 1-800-838-3006. For information, visit otherminds.org or call (415) 934-8134.
