Bang on a Can All-Stars: Ryuichi Sakamoto, 1996

Formed in 1992, the Bang on a Can All-Stars are recognized worldwide for their ultra-dynamic performances of today’s most innovative music. Freely crossing boundaries between classical, jazz, rock, world and experimental music, this six-member amplified ensemble has forged a distinct category-defying identity, taking music into uncharted territories. Bang on a Can musicians have long adored award-winning Japanese composer Ryuichi Sakamoto’s work. In the 1996 project, they have carefully transcribed and recreated his original recordings for live performance—much of it for the first time.

For more than 85 years, the Artist Series has brought the globe’s finest jazz, classical, world music and dance performers to Boulder. Many of these performances sell out; order your tickets today to guarantee the best seats.
