SOUNDS LIKE HOUSTON – THURSDAY ON THE BAYOU

There will be a performance of “SONA: Wind, Rain, and Trains” on Thursday, November 15 at 7 pm. SONA fuses environmental sounds and images based on Houston’s surroundings: freight trains traveling through the city produce bellowing horns and deep rumblings juxtaposed with the rhythms of falling rain and the wind gusts of passing storms. Acoustic and digitally processed performances by Enso String Quartet are punctuated by railroad images that move across the horizon, while sounds of wind and rain surround the audience in a total sensory experience. The work is by composer Kurt Stallmann and filmmaker Alfred Guzzetti. It will be on the banks of Buffalo Bayou below the Sabine Promenade (Sabine Street at Memorial Drive).
