Non-Event is a Boston-based concert series devoted to the presentation of the finest in experimental, abstract, improvised, and new music from New England and around the world.
Non-Event, in collaboration with the Tufts University Art Galleries and Department of Music, presents a solo performance by experimental musician and artist C. Spencer Yeh. Yeh will perform improvisations on violin, voice, and electronics at the Granoff Music Building, next door to the Aidekman Arts Center, where Yeh’s installation World of Music and the Impossible Music exhibition will be on view through April 20th. There is a free tour of the exhibition at 7pm. Music starts at 8pm.
Non-Event presents a special children’s program with Rachel Devorah who uses live coding to make music. Live coding is making art with computers on-the-fly and not worrying about making mistakes. Kids will learn about live coding, see & hear a short live coding performance, and live code themselves! Free and open to children of all ages!
Non-Event presents an evening of improvisation & spoken word with the duo of poet & theorist Fred Moten and bassist Brandon López, plus an ensemble to be announced.
We’re hard at work planning the 2025 season with concerts including Fred Moten & Brandon Lopez at the Cambridge Foundry, Non-Event for Kids with Rachel Devorah at Jamaica Plain Branch of the BPL and C Spencer Yeh at Tufts Granoff Music Center. Stay tuned for more exciting announcements.
