Collaboration continues to break new ground in cross-discipline art
PRLog - Mar. 24, 2014 - BOSTON -- BRUSH|REED has been invited by the Hong Kong Wind Ensemble to perform in Hong Kong on June 1, 2014. The performance will be held at the Hong Kong City Hall Theatre.

Since inception, BRUSH|REED has been a labor of love and entirely self-funded.

About BRUSH|REED:

BRUSH|REED is a collaboration between painter Linnea Doyle (Los Angeles) and saxophonist Dr. Jennifer Bill (Boston). The artists join together to explore the parallels between painting and music via live stage performances. Jennifer transforms the printed notes of her musical score into lush soundscapes, Linnea further interprets the music into visual color and form on her fresh canvas.
The live art that blooms at every BRUSH|REED performance captivates and moves audiences. The paintings that emerge establish a visual memory of the sights, sounds, and emotions of each intimate affair, impressing upon each audience member a feeling of symbiosis between the two disciplines presented to them.
BRUSH|REED engages an audience through color, pitch, representational lines, rhythm, intensity, and expression... A true aural-visual experience.
“This is the unique kind of performance that highlights how the performing and visual arts are inextricably connected and shines a light on how the collaborative process of the creation of art, whether sonic or visual, is what connects us all as humans.” Brad Fuster chair Buffalo State Music Department
