Tonight in Music

posted by on January 23 at 9:30 AM

From the Score:

SEATTLE SYMPHONY
The Symphony’s series of free neighborhood concerts serves up Copland’s “Hoe Down” from Rodeo, a Telemann viola concerto, the “Romance,” op. 42 of Jean Sibelius, Walter Piston’s boring Divertimento, and some Haydn, the Symphony No. 49 in F minor, nicknamed “La Passione.” Also Wed Jan 24 at the Langston Hughes Cultural Arts Center at 7:30 pm. South Park Community Center, 8319 Eighth Ave S, 684-7451, 7 pm, free.

From Data Breaker:

LOWFISH
As a producer and proprietor of Suction Records, Lowfish (Toronto’s Gregory de Rocher) keeps the retro-electro-bleep flag flying. Now, a lot of retro electro can sound overly enthralled with its ’80s progenitors. Thankfully, Lowfish appears to have absorbed some sonic developments since the Reagan era. Although I prefer his earlier, weirder IDM-ish output (see 1999’s Fear Not the Snow and Other Lo-fiing Objects), Lowfish’s more recent material abounds with both winsomely tuneful electro pop and Ectomorph-ish menace, which are delightfully old-school in execution yet not marred by stifling reverence for the past. Baltic Room, 1207 E Pine St, 625-4444, 9 pm—2 am, $10, 21+.

Also: Kane Hodder’s playing an all-ages show at Hell’s Kitchen, Verona’s at El Corazon, and G. Love is at the Showbox. But I’m not sure who’d want to go see G. Love….
