Duo Axis Presents: Why Patterns

Please join us for a free concert in Allen Hall in the Boston Center for the Arts, for a rare chance to hear Morton Feldman's 30-minute dazzling trio: Why Patterns?

Alongside Feldman's work, we share four works which carry on the themes of memory; repetition; patterns; and gentle motion. Join us for an evening of meditative, tranquil music that also bursts forth with joy and color and radiance.
