This fall, Cantor Arts Center debuts Forms & Frequencies, a Thursday night music series featuring musicians and sound artists from the Bay Area and beyond with special evening hours for audiences to visit exhibitions in the Cantor Arts Center.

Join us on Thursday, September 5 for outdoor performances by Kkiri Kkiri Samulnori and transcriptions01. Kkiri Kkiri Samulnori will open our series at 6:30pm in Oshman Lawn, just outside of Tootsie’s Cafe, drawing on traditional Korean percussion music. The group will be followed by experimental cellist Transcriptions01, who will be performing at the Diekman Entrance.

This series is programmed in conjunction with Spirit House, an exhibition featuring contemporary artists of Asian descent who challenge the boundary between life and death, and asks the question: what does it mean to speak to ghosts, inhabit haunted spaces, be reincarnated, or enter different dimensions? Whether you’re a fan of live music, a lover of art, or simply looking for a unique night out, Forms & Frequencies promises an unforgettable experience that resonates with all your senses.

All public programs at the Cantor Arts Center are always free! Space for this program is limited; advance registration is recommended.

Kkiri Kkiri is a community-based Samulnori group. Samulnori is a performance practice based on traditional percussion music from farming communities in Korea. In addition to Samulnori, Kkiri Kkiri is dedicated to learning, sharing, and celebrating other Korean and Korean-American traditions and culture.
