It’s the 12th month of the Oakland Active Orchestra’s residence at the Uptown in downtown Oakland, California. This month, the group plays Flockterkit, a suite of music composed by Aram Shelton that includes post-ayler melodies, chamber-like sections that are developed through compositional rearrangement, drones and slowly shifting chords, and full harmony orchestrated by the 14 members of the OAO.
