Praised by the Village Voice for "her phenomenal technique, her instinctive command of recent aesthetics, and quite possibly the most interesting repertoire of any pianist around," Sarah Cahill will perform music from her ongoing project called A Sweeter Music, for which 18 composers are writing new works envisioning peace. The work's title comes from the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.'s Nobel Lecture: "We must see that peace represents a sweeter music, a cosmic melody that is far superior to the discords of war." Video projections are by John Sanborn, who has collaborated with such artists as Bill T. Jones, Van Halen, and Mikhail Baryshnikov.

Program: A Sweeter Music, featuring works by Frederic Rzewski, Yoko Ono, Terry Riley, and The Residents
