The S21 Conquest of Astoria

And NYTIMES WIN, as the kids like to say.

That’s right, Monday night’s S21 concert at Waltz Astoria was a big success.  Lost Dog played wonderfully, and I can vouch for the fact that the program is every bit as good as we’ve been claiming.  And of course a good review in the Times by our pal and internet neighbor Steve Smith is a nice bonus.

This Friday at the Good Shepherd Church (152 West 66th Street in Manhattan) should be even better, and I’m told that most of the composers will be in attendance, many having traveled hundreds or thousands of miles to be here.  Admission is free, and the show starts at 8PM.

Also, it’s not to late to help out with a modest financial contribution–your support helps us make these things free.  You can give online here, (please be sure to write “For the Sequenza21 concert” in the “Special Instructions” box–otherwise it won’t be applied to our event), or if you’d prefer you can send a check to:

The Astoria Music Society
38-11 Ditmars Blvd.
Box 102A
Astoria, NY 11105

(If you send a check, please include a note indicating that you want your gift applied to the S21 concert.)  All contributions made through Astoria Music Society (Lost Dog’s parent organization) are tax deductible.  If for whatever reason you hate those options but still love us, e-mail me at galen[at]galenbrown.com and we’ll work something out.
