TILTED AXES: Music for Mobile Electric Guitars celebrates the Summer Solstice with music & movement in Cooper Square Plaza with a performance of their latest spectacle SUNBURN, a set of sonic structures comprised of polyrhythmic patterns, post-rock riffing, and contemplative drones. They will move about the plaza and its environs as a procession and perform on-site in different formations on Wednesday, June 21, from 7:00-9:00pm as part of the city-wide festival Make Music New York.
This event is presented in partnership with NYC DOT Public Space Programming.
NEW MUSIC: This round of Tilted Axes Composer Creations are by John Halo (Three Speeds), Sarah Metivier Schadt (Sarah TBD), and Dmitri Shapira (Front Is Back). The group will also perform original music as always and will feature tilted arrangements of Monteverdi, Glass, Piazzolla, Satie, and Hendrix.

“Dmitri’s music is mature, beautiful, and slightly spiritual...his music, bent notes, other sounds and handling of melodies, come deeply from within.”
— Ran Blake, pianist and composer
“Dramatic shifts between harsh and low strumming reflect in scurrying hand positions. Shapira bridges his interpretations with restless musical questioning.”
— Jon Babu, Northeast Performer
