About this Event
The Cultural Center at St. John's continues its chamber music series with a performance by The Rhythm Method, featuring Noelle Tannen.
The Rhythm Method
Praised as “fierce, fearless, and virtuosic… unapologetically stylistically omnivorous and versatile” (New Music Box) and “trailblazing...skillful composer-performers” (The New Yorker), The Rhythm Method strives to reimagine the string quartet in a contemporary, feminist context. The four performer-composers of The Rhythm Method continually expand their sonic and expressive palette through the use of improvisation, vocalization, graphic notation, songwriting, and theater. The Rhythm Method has given performances at Roulette, Joe’s Pub, The Stone, the Met Museum, the Americas Society, and the Noguchi Museum, and has been featured at the Lucerne Festival Forward, MATA Festival, the Ukrainian Contemporary Music Festival, American Composers Orchestra’s Sonic Festival, Music Mondays, and TriBeCa New Music, among others. The quartet tours regularly both in the US and abroad, and has performed internationally in France, Austria, and Switzerland. The Rhythm Method’s ongoing activities include the Hidden Mothers Project, a programming initiative that highlights works by historical women composers, and Broad Statements, an annual mini-festival celebrating creative music-making by women, non-binary, and gender-expansive people in a wide array of artistic styles.
Noelle Tannen
Noelle Tannen performs with "a casual serenity that sets others at ease and an electric crackle that burns to the surface when she performs” (BTR TODAY). RnB and chamber pop influences, combined with a riveting stage presence, make a moving and unforgettable show.
