Volunteers needed to perform   Music for 100 Carpenters  at Peirogi Gallery's BOILER space in Wiliamsburg Brooklyn, November 7&8.  It's a 30 minute piece that will be a lot of fun to perform and requires minimal preparation. 

Requirements: 
*   Able to hammer nails into a soft pine board 
(you don't need to be a carpenter or a musician, just able to hammer)
*   Willing to follow very simple instructions and imitate the actions of a Head Carpenter 
*   Available for a performance on Saturday, Nov. 7 and/or  one on Sunday Nov. 8.  You'll be needed from 6:00pm - 9:00pm  for the performance and orientation.

Please RSVP to:  100carpenters@googlemail.com  as soon as possible and include name and date(s) available.  I will then send you a confirmation email and more information.


Music for 100 Carpenters is a theatrical surround sound work enlisting 100 skilled and unskilled workers.  Prying at Stockhausen’s line between rhythm and timbre, 100 hammers, 100 sawhorses and some 10,000 nails of varying sizes are brought to bear.  Under the guidance of a job supervisor hundreds of hammer blows become waves of tonal murmur threaded with rustlings of nails in bags and occasional snarls of righteous indignation.  Toolbelts, sweat and lunchboxes are part of the score. 


I do hope you can join us, and feel free to pass this on to people you think might be interested.
Best, 
Douglas Henderson
