About this Performance

GRAMMY-nominated orchestral collective Wild Up presents Arthur Russell’s minimalist disco masterwork 24 to 24 Music as part of the To the Fullest festival. Performed a number of times during Russell’s life, this open-form jam for ensemble, percussion, keyboards, and voices bridges the seeming chasm between the new music community of Downtown New York and the popular dance music of the Loft. Premiering at The Kitchen in 1979, the performance included Julius Eastman as performer and assistant to Russell–who also appeared on the later studio recording. Taking a cue from the unexpected dancing that broke out at the premiere, these performances will be presented in a transformed REDCAT theater that evokes the large-scale dance parties of Downtown New York as audiences are encouraged to dance and experience this work fully.

Tickets available via the REDCAT Box Office.

Produced and co-presented by Wild Up, the Roy and Edna Disney/CalArts Theater, and LA Phil Insight
