Matana Roberts Presents: “off the record…”

A new live solo performance emerging from the world of the COIN COIN project moves between memory, imagination, and lived experience.

Emerging from the world of their ongoing COIN COIN project, composer, saxophonist, and sound experimentalist Matana Roberts presents a new live solo performance piece that moves between memory, imagination, and lived experience. Part story, part call, the work follows association rather than chronology with language, gesture, silence, humor, and chance shaping each telling.

Part of the lineage of the COIN COIN project was conceived in its inception at Roulette. This work sits at its tail end as a celebratory loving postscript: an underbelly, making space for ideas and questions that lie beyond the scope of the recordings.

A livestream will be available free of charge at 8pm on the day of the performance and archived for future viewing.
