FREE Ticket Giveaway to Sarah Kirkland Snider's Record Release Party

The Bay's best newsletter for underground events & news

Known more for its cocktail-fueled dance parties than a showcase for modern classical music, Le Possion Rouge will be playing host to contemporary composer Sarah Kirkland Snider, as she gives us a sneak peak to her new album Penelope, which drops Oct 26.

Mixing poetry and mythology, the album is named after Odysseus’s wife, in Homer’s the Odyssey. Snider teams up with vocalist Shara Worden of My Brightest Diamond, to create a harmonious sound of playful instrumentation and melodic vocals. The album tells the tale of Penelope’s point of view after her war-torn husband returns from his journey. Sinder broadens her score to include everything from guitars, string and more modern electronic sources.

Joining her for the full album length performance is the yMusic Ensemble who will also open the performance with an exclusive set of their own.  To score your own two exclusive tickets to the show, email me at lauradotsmith@gmail.com for a chance to win tickets to Monday’s performance on October 18.
