Bobby Previte's Blueprints. Hudson valley composer Bobby Previte leads a conceptual performance, with webcasts at wgxc.org and wavefarm.org. Previte has invited some of his favorite musicians in the Hudson Valley and beyond for these inaugural concerts of his newest project, Blueprints. Starting from 1979 and going forward up to the present moment, Previte has ripped a fragment of nearly every piece of music he has written in the last 39 years and placed them all, divorced from their previous context, into one (very long) document. The ensemble will play, distort, improvise around, and sometimes ignore these fragments. Using hand signals, body movements, and the occasional odd glare, Previte conducts the musicians through the maze, taking a different path every night. Part performance, part open rehearsal, part hang out - where audience members as well as players will see the fragments projected on screen - Blueprints should be a wildly different experience each performance. There should be a live webstream at http://wgxc.org. Click on "Listen Now" at top of the page, and scroll down to find the live webstream.

Bill Brovold is an educator, visual artist, and composer/musician. He has performed with Rhys Chatham, Arthur Russell, and Glenn Branca; and led the New York band Strange Farm (featuring Billy Ficca of Television and Ernie Brooks of the Modern Lovers) and the six-to-thirteen-member Detroit post rock band Larval, which features his twangy guitar alongside a wall-of-sound onslaught of horns and strings. He has released music on John Zorn’s Avant and Tzadik imprints and the Cuneiform, Knitting Factory, and RareNoise labels (a duet with Jamie Saft for the latter). His most recent releases, for the Public Eyesore label, see him paring down his sound for more intimate surroundings—closer to what he might do with a few friends in someone’s living room. Peter Aaron is a rock/noise/free improvising musician and author. He is the founder, lead vocalist, and guitarist of the influential New York band the Chrome Cranks, who have released albums on Crypt, PCP Entertainment, Au Go Go, Sympathy for the Record Industry, Bang!, HoZac, Thick Syrup, and other labels. His past projects include the hardcore bands Sand in the Face and Sluggo and the psychedelic guitar duo Avondale Airforce. Currently, he performs with Hudson Valley trio Young Skulls and with Yeah Yeah Yeahs drummer Brian Chase in the free noise project Peter Aaron/Brian Chase Duo, whose debut album, Purges, appeared on the Public Eyesore label in 2016. The soundtrack he recorded with drummer Bobby Previte for the indie horror film The Furies Inside Me is set for release on Public Eyesore/Eh? in 2018.

He performs on the tenor sax, soprano sax and flute in the metropolitan area as well as performing as a ten year member of Bill Cole’s Untempered Ensemble. His paternal grandfather Theodore Burnett I (“Ted Barnett” professionally) performed on alto and tenor saxophones in the bands of Chick Webb, Lucky Millinder, Earl Bostic, Jimmy Mundy, Henri Woode, Don Redman, Benny Carter and Sister Rosetta Tharpe among others after his arrival from Jamaica in 1929. He can be viewed in early film footage performing with some of the orchestras listed. He wrote music for New Canaan Baptist Church in Brooklyn from the early 70’s to the early '90s. His father (Theodore Jacob Burnett II) played alto sax, and bass clarinet in the Brooklyn area throughout the '70s and '80s. He resumed musical activity from 2000 until his passing in 2014. Ras started music studies in the public schools from 5th grade throughout high school. He played with african drum groups and reggae bands from 1987 to the early 90’s before starting his own ensembles. He is a recent graduate with a B.A in music studies and preparing for a master’s program. He is a recently published poet, his poems being featured in The Metropolitan Review. He is the founder of the “Music Now!” series in 1999, a monthly presentation of jazz and new music initially at The Brecht Forum and currently extant at The Brooklyn Commons since 2011.
