December 2, 2019 marks the 3rd anniversary of the Ghost Ship Fire tragedy in Oakland, CA, a calamity that claimed the 36 victims--musicians, artists, loved ones. While their artistic contribution and memories within the community live on, we dedicate a concert to commemorate their lives.
Voices of Silicon Valley (VOSV) presents a Memorial Concert:
o When: Sunday, December 1, 2019 at 4 pm
o Where: Lake Merritt United Methodist Church. 1330 Lakeshore Ave, Oakland, CA 94606
Bands including Abandoned Footwear and Marmot--friends of these Ghost Ship artists--will also join VOSV in this concert. We will also present artwork by these extraordinary artists, so that we can reclaim a piece of their unique expression, as we celebrate their talents and honor their memories.
We encourage you to come--as yourself and as a community. Joining you in song will be our privilege.
Participants:
o Voices of Silicon Valley: choral music by Arvo Paert, Ligeti, Whitacre, Faure, Orlinsky, Deaconoff
o Abandoned Footwear, Marmot: ambient electronic music; live processing of choral sound
