REDCAT Theater in Disney Hall 621 W. Second St. Los Angeles
John Schneider & Just Strings
Often hilarious, sometimes heartbreaking, Partchâs long-lost 1935 hobo journal will be performed
for the first time as a special multi-media presentation with the composer's legendary instruments.
From the transient shelters of mid-Depression California to the reading room of the British Museum,
from cleaning sewers to taking tea with Irish poet W. B. Yeats, Partch's story reveals seven months
in a lifetime of extraordinary struggle to forge a new musical language outside the traditions of
Western Classical music.
