Please join us for a free pre-release screening of composer Michael J. Evans latest multimedia project. Evans’ THE MUSIC OF ERICH ZANN is a startling and surreal musical interpretation of H.P. Lovecraft’s 1922 tale of the eponymous violist – a mysterious old man who seemingly protects himself from dark, magical forces by playing the viol.
Original artwork in the form of an old handwritten journal and music performed by the Sirius Quartet deliver a tale told retrospectively through the eyes of a university student who happens upon the tenement in an unnamed European city.
Michael J. Evans resides in Washington, D.C., where he is an active composer of orchestral, chamber, and solo instrumental works. He has recorded with the St Petersburg State Symphony Orchestra, Millennium Symphony Orchestra, Kiev Philharmonic, Prague Radio Symphony Orchestra, and, the Moravian Philharmonic.
