Description


The concert traces Moondog's career, drawing selections from albums like The Last Concert and Moondog: Piano Trimba. Trimbtych performs his piano works and vocal canons, while Julian, who studied with Moondog's only student Lakatos, provides background on the music. Elkhorn, a cosmic psych-folk duo, plays on acoustic and electric guitars, weaving American primitive guitar with free-form improvisation. Their sound bridges acoustic tradition and electric exploration, drawing from pre-rock roots and post-rock experimentation.
