Trails Concert: Solo Cello
Sunday, August 22, 2pm
Rattlesnake Lake Recreation Area, North Bend
RSVP requested
Join Trails Project artist Paul Rucker for a cello concert on the banks of Rattlesnake Lake, the southernmost point of the Snoqualmie Valley Trail. Join Paul where the trail meets the water for an opportunity to interact with his work.
“For the past few years, I’ve created new music and improvisations based on audience participation,” Paul describes. “Participants have created clay sculptures, drawings, and put together puzzle pieces to generate graphic scores and points of inspiration for my work. For this concert, something brand new will be offered: Water Pieces – compositions written using water from the lake.”
Paul is exploring the trail system and creating original musical compositions inspired by people, nature, and characteristics of particular trails for the Trails Project. A commission by 4Culture and King County Parks, the Trails Project has three multidisciplinary artists creating temporary, interactive public art experiences on and about the Regional Trails System throughout this summer.
