For The Nature of Music 19, Other Minds welcomes Singaporean avant-garde pianist and toy pianist Margaret Leng Tan with And No Birds Sing.
About this Event

On Thursday December 4, 2025, at Mills College at Northeastern University in Oakland, Other Minds welcomes Singaporean avant-garde pianist and toy pianist Margaret Leng Tan to present And No Birds Sing, her "personal endeavor to call attention to climate change and the dire consequences of remaining passive in the face of an unfolding universal catastrophe." Named for the refrain of a John Keats poem, And No Birds Sing features Tan playing works by John Luther Adams, Lois V Vierk, Somei Satoh, Annie Gosfield, Michael Wookey, Eric Griswold, and John Cage.

This concert is part of Other Minds’s Nature of Music series, presented in cooperation with the Center for Contemporary Music, Northeastern University and Mills Performing Arts.

For more information, listen to Charles Amirkhanian's 1984 interview with Margaret Leng Tan.
