Mind/Supermind: The Tao of Poetic Imagination

These two masters of the cello and Tai Ji celebrate the ‘Tao of Poetic Imagination’, blending ancient philosophical wisdom with the beatific visions and metaphors of Chinese Poetry, to inspiring music and ‘Wu Wei’ spontaneity. Chungliang will recite these timeless poems both in Chinese and in English translations, dancing with David Darling’s virtuosic cello improvisations. The audience will be invited to share these deeply transcendental experiences. David and Chungliang have been collaborating in concerts and teaching for nearly 3 decades. They are currently collaborating in a series of The Tao of Poetry recordings. This year’s special concert celebrates twelve consecutive years of Chungliang Al Huang’s Mind Supermind lecture-concerts, and a second collaboration with David Darling in Santa Barbara. Doors open at 7:00. (Please note: this event was originally scheduled at the Lobero Theater and has been relocated to the Granada.)
