Elliott Sharp performs Octal Elliott Sharp
Meridian Gallery presents a solo performance by guitarist and composer Elliott Sharp. Sharp, who has not performed in the Bay Area since 2005, will perform Octal, a collection of pieces for the Koll 8-string guitarbass built exclusively for him. These pieces function somewhere between etudes and jumping off points for improvised explorations. Not at all academic, these performances are filled with freejazz energy and burning bluesy extemporizations using Sharp's signature extended techniques. $12 general; $10 students/seniors
