Berkeley Public Library presents In the Stax, a Music Series featuring the experimental jazz ensemble, Wiener Kids.
The saxophones/drum trio was formed in 2007 in Oakland, CA by drummer/composer Jordan Glenn with the help of Aram Shelton and Cory Wright. It incoporates percussive sounds from near and far. Objects and instruments include gongs, tin cans, Tibetan bowls, bundt pans, chromatic cowbells, angklung (bamboo rattles), car springs, glockenspiels, various whistles, suitcase-vibraphone, drums and bells. The music is a wild ride of energy and whimsy.
You can listen to their music at https://www.wienerkidsmusic.com/
And join us for the real thing live and in-person on Wednesday, June 12th at 6:30pm in the stacks of our Claremont Branch.
