Works by Pauline Oliveros, Michael Pisaro, and Eva-Maria Houben

This performance takes place outdoors in a circular stone seating area near the water. The ensemble will move through the space over the course of the program, with sound unfolding in relation to the environment.

The First Thought / Best Thought Ensemble is a flexible group of St. Louis–based musicians focused on listening-centered, open-form works, where sound unfolds through shared attention rather than fixed interpretation.

 

Council Circle is a short walk from the Muny on the eastern side of Forest Park. Map link below.
