MADE NOW MUSIC

MNM & Art as Catharsis Present:
CATHARSIS NOW!
-
Come along to , bring your instrument and join us in a new monthly series dedicated to improvised music and collective release. Each month, the Brisbane Conduction Orchestra is joined by two other acts - one of which becomes the Catharsis Now! Band (formed live on the night) where local musicians put their names into a hat, and four performers are drawn at random to create a one-off ensemble for the performance. No rehearsals, no discussion - just presence, listening, and (hopefully) some catharsis. Valtozash is the world's most brutal jazz-metal orchestra! It’s a 15-piece thrash against your jazz-bone; it’s a jab in the eye with a sopranino saxophone; a punch in the jaws with a 24” trash cymbal. Your ears will bleed with delight; your heart will marry a bass drum; you will enjoy the pain of eating a trumpet with your ears.
