Composer Spotlight:
JOHN TESKE
Fundamentals of My Authentic Musical Language

Wed, October 10, 7:30pm

Seattle composer and Jack Straw resident artist John Teske will speak about his recent "five pieces for double bass" and their role in his development of an authentic compositional voice. Incorporating pieces of the past, present, and sketches of new works, John will highlight how the "five pieces" solidified the core ideas that have become part of his musical language.

Jack Straw Literary Podcasts
 Now online at www.jackstraw.org/blog

Jack Straw Productions produces bi-monthly podcasts featuring live readings, interviews, and other audio programs highlighting literary artists from the Jack Straw Writers Program. The companion Jack Straw Writers Blog will be your direct line to what's going on with the podcasts and the Writers Program. The blog will feature program news and the latest from all Writers Program participants past and present. You'll find links to their websites, event announcements, and hopefully random outbursts of literary genius.
