Council: Pekka Kuusisto & Gabriel Kahane
After nearly a decade of musical friendship, it seems only fitting that the iconic Finnish musician Pekka Kuusisto and cult American singer-songwriter Gabriel Kahane have formalized their collaboration under the moniker ‘Council.’ Now, they present an evening of intimate and sonically varied songs & chamber music, written during several writing retreats in Northern Karelia and Portland, Oregon. With this new body of work, Kuusisto & Kahane attempt to locate the universal in the personal, and vice versa: here are stories of individual and collective grief; of nostalgia, adolescence, and memory-play; of the joy, wonder, and perplexity of fatherhood in an era of global instability. As they explore and deepen their own friendship on stage, these two relentlessly searching artists offer a musical tapestry depicting the complexities of life in the 21st century. The program is rounded out with music by, among others, J.S. Bach and Nico Muhly.
Pekka Kuusisto - violin, voice, harmonium, four-string electric guitar, loops, electronics
Gabriel Kahane - piano, voice, electric & acoustic guitars, harmonium, loops
