Next Wave Festival at BAM:

Now through October 9 at BAM: Pina Basuch’s Vollmond: “This season, Bausch’s splendid company Tanztheater Wuppertal (Bamboo Blues, 2008 Next Wave; Nefés, 2006 Next Wave) returns to BAM with the arresting Vollmond (Full Moon). The work shimmers—literally—as water runs in manic rivulets over a giant rock, rushes across the stage, and rains down, drenching the dancers. A study in Bausch’s unparalleled mix of abandon and supreme control, Vollmond is at once urgent, athletic, and sensual—channeling the unrelenting energy of its maker.”

Music:

Here is Brooklyn Vegan’s list of what’s going on Friday in the NYC music scene.

Friday, Oct 1 at 7PM at Barbes: Opera on Tap. “Most people don’t seem to realize how much fun it really is. In order to prove it, Opera on Tap has taken its act to barrooms where they found out that beer on tap enhances the operatic experience. The company is made up of young singers and instrumentalists who relish the direct contact with audiences not inhibited in their reactions by the looming menace of giant chandeliers.”

Saturday, Oct 2 at 7:30 PM at The Bell House: Van Dyke Parks. “Besides being Brian Wilson’s collaborator during the Beach Boys’ psychedelic period, he has worked with performers including Grace Kelly, the Byrds, Loudon Wainwright III, Ry Cooder and Joanna Newsom, and has released several of his own records (and a new record is in the works).”

Saturday, Oct 2 at The Rock Shop: Czech Legends Uz Jesme Doma
