PARTY (World Premiere)

ArtIs (pronounced “Art Is”) is a collective of four artists who met at the San Francisco Conservatory of Music. The four come from different departments at the school: Peyton Dexter and Brayden Meng studied composition, Ezekiel Sokoloff studied violin and Thomas Stenzel was enrolled in the Conservatory’s Technology and Applied Composition program. Together they are developing a new opera titled Party, complete with a 25-player orchestra.

Drawing on a wide range of musical sources from Frank Zappa to Thomas Adès and the Black Eyed Peas, Party asks the question: What happens when intelligent technology begins to mirror the psychology of its creators’ worst features — their mental illnesses, substance abuse, identity crises and so on?

A pair of performances will take place on July 24 and 25 at 7 p.m. Attendance is free with RSVP
