UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS ENSEMBLE “TV BUDDHA” TO PERFORM AT INDI GO


 TV Buddha will perform at indi go Artist Co-Op on Saturday, April
14thfrom 3-5pm. There is a $1 suggested donation. TV Buddha is new
contemporary
music ensemble comprised from students at the University of Illinois at
Champaign-Urbana. With members coming from backgrounds such as classical,
jazz, and composition, TV Buddha’s primary mission is to commission and
perform new works from upcoming composers around the Champaign-Urbana area.
Inspired by Nam June Paik’s famous postmodern work, TV Buddha utilizes an
extremely versatile instrumentation as a tool to encourage today’s
classical composers to further defy genres. Based purely on the
instruments, most listeners might expect anything from jazzfusion (think
John McLaughlin’s Mahavishnu Orchestra) to classical chamber music (think
Igor Stravinsky’s Histoire du Soldat).

Join TV Buddha in their efforts to celebrate local composers and musicians
in the Champaign-Urbana community.
