Angelica Negron, Darian Donovan Thomas, and Raquel Acevedo Klein Present: FLORESTA

  • Public Functionary 1500 Jackson Street NE, Studio 144 Minneapolis, 55413 (map)

On January 31st and February 1st, Angelica Negron and NewAm Artistic Associates Darian Donovan Thomas and Raquel Acevedo Klein will present Floresta, a one-of-a-kind musical experience inspired by trees’ underground communication network. Using voices, violin, synths, flowers, bells, accordion, water, and biodata from plants, these composers weave a rich tapestry of music that mirrors the dynamic rhythms of nature itself. Negron’s The Blue Hour, with Sarah Kirkland Snider, Caroline Shaw, Rachel Grimes, A Far Cry, and Shara Nova was released on New Amsterdam Records in 2022. Darian Donovan Thomas’s A Room With Many Doors: Night was released on New Amsterdam Records in 2024. Floresta has two showings on February 1st: 1pm and 5pm.
