We just wanted to pass along a huge thanks to Berklee Pulse for including us in the BANDED project. We’ve spent the last six months or so being followed as we wrote, developed, received expert faculty coaching for, and premiered our three-song ballet-accompaniment piece “Faith in Free” in two spaces. We really want to thank them for including us in this project (which isn’t quite over yet!) and we really look forward to seeing the final documentary film that is in development. We were really excited to see the premiere of teaser footage from the shoots. We want to thank everyone involved with the project, particularly Linda Chase, who helped us explore our musical influences and ideas and helped a lot with the arrangement of the instrumental breakdown in “Faith in Free Part III.” We very much look forward to sharing more about this project as things progress!!!
On 10/6, we played the showcase show for this project and all of the bands involved (Zili Misik, Aloud, Ghost Box Orchestra, and Tumbleweed Company) premiered their works. We want to specifically thank our guest singers who helped us present FIF exactly how we wanted! As we are a library, we also let each of them take out one book from our stacks for an extended period. Here’s who they were and the books they chose!
