EVENT: Ecstatic Music Festival kickoff in The Greene Space

Each year, the Ecstatic Music Festival shoves contemporary classical musicians and experimental pop groups together onto a stage to unleash some serious creative noise. This year’s festival begins tonight, and we’re hosting the kickoff right here at WNYC, in our street-level studio The Greene Space, where the percussionist known as Man Forever joins forces with the avant-pop band Tigue. 

 

WNYC is funded by sponsors and member donations
