Tatsuya Nakatani and The TANK will lift the audience for the Eighth Annual Solstice Festival to new heights.
Nakatani is an avant-garde percussionist, composer, and artist of sound. His distinctive music centers around an adapted bowed gong, supported by an array of drums, cymbals, and singing bowls. With his personally hand-carved Kobo Bows, he has spent decades refining and developing his sound as an arrangement of formations of vibrations, incorporated in shimmering layers of silence and texture. Within this contemporary work, one can still recognize the dramatic pacing, formal elegance and space (ma) felt in traditional Japanese music.
The Solstice Festival itself will continue all weekend, June 21 to 23, with gatherings, demonstrations and opportunities for all to make sonic art in The TANK.
