"I don't want to alarm you, but autumn is almost here, people. September 15-21 is the last week before the equinox, and fortunately for us, Portland has plenty of creative and apparently candlelit events planned. On the docket are astral jazz, Sasha Fishman's slime sculptures, and vampire baseball set to a live orchestra. Plus, you'll find the latest from some locals, including novelist Leni Zumas, certified baddie Wynne, and Gaia lovers Making Earth Cool. Here's what not to miss."
"Envisioned as an evolving collective fostering collaborative music-making among those with and without disabilities, Magic Luscious Spirit Sounds (MLSS) posts up at Turn! Turn! Turn! two Monday afternoons a month for heavy jam sessions. In any given MLSS performance, you might spy a saxophonist, a xylophonist, or a melodica player; their mood is dynamic creative freedom, their guiding light is Octavia Butler ("The only lasting truth is change")."
"Look, I hate starting off this blurb in a defensive manner, but apparently some of you haven't gotten the memo that the Twilight film series (at least the first three) is an absolute DELIGHT. Whether you're Team Jacob, Edward, or Bella (I'm Team Jacob, because I am correct), you will flip ass over teakettle for Twilight in Concert, featuring a live orchestra on stage synced up with the film-which will be projected on a huge screen."
Portland's September 15–21 lineup features a range of creative events and local artists. Magic Luscious Spirit Sounds (MLSS) is an evolving collective that fosters collaborative music-making among people with and without disabilities, hosting heavy jam sessions at Turn! Turn! Turn! two Monday afternoons a month and citing Octavia Butler's maxim 'The only lasting truth is change.' Twilight in Concert presents the first three films with a live orchestra synced to the projection at Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall, with lighted candles to add ambience and a staged vampire baseball sequence. Additional highlights include astral jazz, Sasha Fishman's slime sculptures, novelist Leni Zumas, musical artist Wynne, and Making Earth Cool.
