SAM at 75 Party in the Park
Glenn Branca’s “Symphony No. 13 (Hallucination City)” for SAM’sParty in the Park at the Olympic Sculpture Park

New York composer Glenn Branca is seeking 80 guitarists and 20 bass players to volunteer for his upcoming monumental performance of “Symphony No.13 (Hallucination City)”. This performance will be in Seattle on May 16 for the Seattle Art Museum’s Party in the Park, a fundraising event celebrating the museum’s 75th Anniversary.

There will be two rehearsals on May 14th and 15th each lasting from 11:00am to 9pm. Additionally, there will be a sound check on the afternoon of May 16, prior to the performance at the Olympic Sculpture Park.

It will not be possible to monetarily compensate musicians, so all musicians will be volunteering their time. Food and drink will be supplied at all rehearsals and the performance.

All musicians must be able to read standard staff notation and follow a part measure by measure.

Party in the Park, SAM’s rock-and-roll birthday bash, will be at the Olympic Sculpture Park on May 16. Party in the Park will showcase Branca’s “Symphony No. 13 (Hallucination City)”, along with other exclusive artistic and entertainment experiences, cocktails, party fare, and excitement throughout the evening.

For more information about volunteering as a musician contact glenn@glennbranca.com and you will be sent detailed information.
