Announcing the Sixth Season of Tuning the Air
Tuning the Air is a unique experience of music in three dimensions. Chamber music where the musicians define the chamber itself. A compelling exploration of improvisations and original works, as well as innovative arrangements of material from Zeppelin to Shostakovich, Beatles to the Beach Boys.

Performing steadily since April of 2005, Tuning the Air has developed a stellar reputation and a dedicated audience. Why? Because the show is truly unlike anything you have experienced before. 360 degrees of live music performed by musicians who have mastered the art of ensemble playing!

“It’s like being inside a giant zither; strums, chords, and melodies not only sail over your head, but tilt and rotate around you. The sound moves with a method.”
The Stranger

“Some of the most amazing guitar sounds that resonate with the essence of Seattle’s diverse music scene, taking performance art to the people in a unique and wholly uplifting way.”
Seattle Post-Intelligencer

In order to help raise funds towards this effort, they’ve established a Cafe Press store where you can find a variety of clothing, mugs, buttons, magnets, and a wall clock all sporting Tuning The Air imagery.

They encourage, as do I, to help support them in this effort to raise funds… who doesn’t need another coffee mug?

Head to http://www.cafepress.com/TuningTheAir/ to check out the goods, and don’t forget to visit Tuning The Air at the Capitol Hill Arts Center if you are in the area!  Shows are every Monday until December 17th at 8PM.
