What a fascinating concept! The music of Twin Peaks justifiably has a large cult following due to the way its noirish cool jazz and unsettlingly blissful moods augment the TV series and films. Now play those soundtrack pieces with instruments created by avant-garde composer Harry Partch, and you have a whole other level of sublimity. A few of such otherworldly Partch inventions will make their way from UW music school to the acoustically rich Chapel Performance Space with the aim of (let us hope) radically reinterpreting Twin Peaks composer Angelo Badalamenti’s haunting ambience and glacially beautiful melodies.
