LeHum vol. 1 no. 4
Galerie Sans Nom, Éditions Sisyphe and Music/Musique NB presents the fourth instalment of a series of monthly concerts of contemporary and experimental music. This series proposes pieces from the experimental music repertoire mainly from composers and performers of today, as well as from the last sixty years.

LeHum, Vol. 1, No. 4, will be held on Thursday, July 11, at 9:00 PM, at Galerie Sans Nom, 140 Botsford Street, in Moncton. Admission is $6.

We have the pleasure of welcoming US based ensemble Red Desert for our July LeHum, this clarinet and percussion duo will play an evening of sounds floating between lines of modernity: birds, lovers, gongs, war drums, waves, sleeping, baseball and ancient lakes. We’ll hear among the most influential voices of the last sixty years in music, including Earle Brown, Karlheinz Stockhausen, Michael Pisaro, Christian Wolff and more.
