Special Extended Hours Music Jam with Tom Peters
Sunday Aug. 15th, 2010, 6:30pm-10:00pm
Tom Peters is a composer and performer who is well-known for his interpretations of contemporary music. For the past 4 years, Tom has combined his talents with his love of silent movies by creating original scores through looping electronics, weaving a series of layered loops in the moment to create dense textures that underline the action on the screen. He has previously presented Der Golem and The Cabinet of Doctor Caligari at the Branson; Pandora’s Box is Tom’s third film. He will present The Lodger, Alfred Hitchcock’s first masterpiece, on October 23, 2010 at the Branson.
Tom is a member of Southwest Chamber Music, the Long Beach Symphony Orchestra, and Ensemble Green, and is on the faculty of the Bob Cole Conservatory of Music. He has been featured in a series of solo concerts at Boston Court since 2004.

I was wondering if there are any classes, teachers or jams on the eastside? Hollywood, Silverlake, Echo park, downtown? I would like to learn and practice and SM far for me, I need to be up early for work.
Thank you any help you can provide.
Warm regards,
Matthew
Hi,
I am interested in teaching a workshop or class for intermediate to advanced contact improvisers in LA, Saturday May 30 or Sunday May 31.
I am a performer and teacher of improvisation forms. I worked with Nita Little extensively for 10 years studying, performing and teaching contact improvisation and dance theatre improvisation. I’ve also worked in collaborative improv groups. My performance work is La Lee Lee Dance Theatre.
I know every 3rd Sunday you have the beginner’s class, which I’d be happy to teach Sunday May 17th. Could a 5th Sunday work for an adv/int class?
Is there a specific person I should contact?
Thanks!
@Matthew, at this point this is the only jam in Los Angeles I am aware of.
@Leralee, I will be in touch with you regarding teaching the May class. The jams take place on Sunday so please pencil in May 31.
Keep dancing!
