Jill Jantzen, piano

Classical pianist Jill Jantzen, has been recognized for her "virtuoso performance..., professionalism and training." Currently based in Cincinnati, OH, Jill is taking her piano concert tour, Seasons of Sound, to the West Coast. The program features pieces by Beethoven, Gershwin, Shostakovich and Rachmaninoff; each representing life's familiar seasons of contemplation, difficulty, peace, and delight.

Throughout the tour, Jill seeks to share her classical music beyond the typical concert hall setting. The hosts for the Seasons of Sound tour are local restaurants and intimate concert venues. Come hang out and hear some great classical piano music!

Demonsleeper
Heavy sedated distorted pulses and hypnotic vocals based on nightmares and lucid dreamscapes. Demonsleeper is the solo project of Alexandra Buschman.

SL Morse
voice/percussion/drums duo of Aurora Josephson and Sarah Lockhart. Combining composition and improvisation, the music veers from polite to deranged and back and forth in keeping with the short story it is based on. Lockhart and Josephson have collaborated artistically for 7 years on a variety of projects, both musical and multidisciplinary, including other SL Morse works, video/music performances as part of The Illuminated Corridor, and the noise rock band Tainted Pussy.
