Tags: 200 guitars live performance

Description: Last August, volunteer guitarists and bassists from around the world gathered in New York City to rehearse and perform composer Rhys Chatham's 'A Crimson Grail,' for 200 Electric Guitars (Outdoor Version) as part of Lincoln Center's 'Out of Doors' festival. Owing to severely inclement weather and safety concerns, the performance was canceled at the last minute. A year later, on August 8, 2009, Rhys Chatham and section leaders David Daniell, John King, Seth Olinsky and Ned Sublette will reassemble the oversized orchestra for the long-awaited world premiere.
