WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. — Soundings: New Music at the Clark, a concert series presented by the Clark Art Institute in collaboration with the Nasher Sculpture Center, Dallas, continues on Sunday, May 22 at 3 pm. 

 

The second concert of the series, Soundings: This Land with Theo Bleckmann & The Westerlies, takes place near the Clark's outdoor reflecting pools (rain location: Clark auditorium).

 

Theo Bleckmann & The Westerlies draw inspiration from protest music in a performance delivered on the grounds of the Clark from a truck called the Yellow Barn Music Haul. A rousing brass band, Theo Bleckmann and The Westerlies has arranged songs by Joni Mitchell, Woody Guthrie, and Bertolt Brecht, as well as set lyrics by Joe Hill, a Swedish-American immigrant, laborer, and union organizer, to music.

 

The performance is free; no registration is required. Bring a lawn chair or blanket for seating.
