Seattle
based ensemble Figeater heads to New York for two sure to be
explosively wild shows and a series of guerilla performances. "Led by
clarinetist Beth Fleenor, Figeater make improvised music that ranges
from insistently propulsive and buoyant - Fleenor can channel the
spirit of Raymond Scott with aplomb - to aloof atmospheres, thugged-up
backbeats, and loony melismatic rants." (The Stranger) "Beth Fleenor
transcends labels - a multi-talented, creative force in Seattle." (City
Arts Magazine)
This conFIGuration will feature performing unit: Special Fig
(Beth Fleenor, clarinet, bass clarinet, beth boxing, electronics /
Stephen Parris, guitar / John Seman, bass / Mark Ostrowski, drums )
Disjunctive, raucous, soaring, and powerful
- Figeater is a textural, tribal exploration of organic movement,
instigated by clarinetist/composer Beth Fleenor.
Improvisations
are punctuated, buttoned and launched by original compositions and
songlike psychedelic episodes, with an emphasis on enviornmental
participation. It has been called sonic spelunking - or an all
improvised fun time.
"Daringly, {Figeater} was down right
pretty, not a term often associated with free improv...while later it
was visceral, convulsive and more than a bit creepy..." - Seattle
Weekly
"Clarinetist/composer Beth Fleenor bases her cargo-cult band on the
arrival of unhinged, uncorked, unkempt provocations from a small,
raucous band of collaborators. Expect some wailin', some keening, and
some siren-singing, too." - Earshot Jazz

The Washington Composers Orchestra (WACO), formed in 2008, came about when long
time Seattle residents Robin Holcomb and Wayne Horvitz re-united with recent NY
transplant Tom Varner and made plans to re-create the now defunct New York
Composers
Orchestra (NYCO),
an ensemble active from 1986-1999, using Seattle based musicians. WACO has
performed
at the Earshot Jazz Festival, the Seattle Drum School, and currently performs
monthly
at Tost, a Seattle venue in the Fremont neighborhood. The band consists of many
of Seattle's greatest
jazz and improvising musicians.
