BURMOOSE

Park Stickney & Rudiger Oppermann In Concert

October 1st at 7:30 p.m.
Burbank Moose Lodge

As part of their 2009 US tour, New York jazz harpist Park Stickney and German electro-Celtic harpist Rudiger Oppermann will perform at 7:30 PM on Thursday, October 1, 2009 in Burbank at the Burbank Moose Lodge..

Rudiger Oppermann, Germany's foremost Celtic-harp player, is a performer, innovator and internationally-known ambassador of crossover harp music. An inspirational electro-Celtic harpist surpassing all existing standards on his instrument with a unique, improvisational style, giving melodic expression and power to his performance.

Park Stickney, plays jazz harp like nobody else. In his hands (and feet) the electric pedal harp morphs from funky bass to piano to koto to Spanish guitar... Stickney's exciting improvisational ease, and sizzling extreme-pedal technique liberates the instrument, taking it to completely new and wild territories, far removed from it's traditional role in the orchestra.. In addition to his internationally acclaimed performances, he's on the faculties of the Royal Academy of Music in London, and the Conservatoire National Supérieur Musique de Lyon, France.

The duo, who have played together officially since 2004 (and jammed unofficially for years backstage at various festivals), will perform tunes from their CD "Harp Summit", including original compositions and re-invented traditional tunes as well as works by Sting, Miles Davis, and Hildegard von Bingen. The tour, which begins in Seattle, will play its way down the west coast to LA before heading back to Europe.

Concert: Burbank Moose Lodge, 1901 W Burbank Blvd, Burbank, CA, 7:30 PM
