SUMMARY:Origin Stories
DESCRIPTION:Cellist and violinist Philip and Hirono Borter of Duo-B are coming back to Beerthoven and they've "ginned" up a program you won't want to miss! Origin Stories traces the development of various classic genres from Polish mazurkas through Brazilian choro\, all the way to works by Villa-Lobos and Duo-B's own original compositions. The program also reimagines the music of J.S. Bach in a modern context\, reflecting on how foundational ideas continue to inspire new generations of composers and performers. Thanks to our sponsors\, we will also be serving warm pastries\, cold beer\, and hand foraged gins generously provided by Easy Tiger\, Lazarus Brewing\, and Wild Gins\, as well as wine and non-alcoholic beverages--all at no additional cost! This event will take place at the historic Saengerrunde Hall in downtown Austin\; home to Austin's oldest cultural institution\, the German singing society the Austin Saengerrunde. Experience Beerthoven in the heart of the Live Music Capital of the World! Kids are welcome! Tickets for children as well as students through college age are available for $10. Purchase at the door or email daniel@beerthoven.com for advance student tickets. This project is supported in part by an Elevate Grant of Austin Arts\, Culture\, Music\, & Entertainment. Intimate Performance at Esquina Tango Friday\, May 1st at 7:30 pm: We're excited to produce this special program including Latin American music at Austin's home for Latin American dance and culture\, Esquina Tango in East Austin! See this page for tickets to this special performance. Parking Info: Look for parking in the state parking garages immediately surrounding the Saengerrunde facilities. During most of our events these are open and free of charge.Sometimes there is a parking attendant charging $30\, especially when concurrent events take place in the Moody Center. In that event\, you may look for parking on street or at the Capitol Visitors Parking Garage\, three blocks south of the Saengerrunde on San Jacinto (this is typically free). The Bullock Museum also offers an inexpensive parking option. About Beerthoven: The critically-acclaimed Beerthoven Concert Series is a down-to-earth\, approachable celebration of classical song\, chamber music\, and beer\; a quirky mixture of Bach and Doppelbock in unique and intimate settings. Beerthoven finds its inspiration in the musical and festive events of the Austin Saengerrunde as well as the private "salon" concerts of Beethoven's time. Beerthoven events feature live classical music\, free beer\, and other refreshments and snacks in an all-inclusive manner. There is no backstage here\; audience members may even find themselves standing in line for beer with the performers. Programming is intentionally diverse in tone\, instrumentation\, and featured performers. Beerthoven supports local artists by offering fair compensation and unique performance venues. Audience members will find our prices at the very low end of typical classical concerts--especially for students and especially given the high quality of the exbeerience.
