Hey, upstaters:
TRANSIT is going to perform Corps Exquis at Cornell University at the end of this month! We’re thrilled to have new videos to accompany the piece. True to the nature of the “exquisite corpse” parlor game, it’s sounding better than ever.
Sunday, April 28 at 3:00
Johnson Museum of Art
Cornell University
Ithaca, NY
Funded in part by grants from the Cornell Council for the Arts and New Music USA (Cary New Music Performance Fund), with support from New Amsterdam Presents.
We had a great time playing on the Ecstatic Music Festival! Thanks to Judd Greenstein, New Amsterdam Presents, the Kaufman Center, and WQXR for making it all happen. And thank you to Laurel Halo, Julia Holter, and Daniel Wohl for a great collaboration!
Head on over to WQXR for audio of the entire show.

Hi all, and happy February!
January was great: we reached, and then exceeded, our fundraising goal for our kickstarter campaign! Thank you so much to all of you for your generous support!
We are happy to announce two concerts this month:
1. Our collaboration with Laurel Halo and Julia Holter on February 23 for the Ecstatic Festival. (Remember? Reserve tickets now for a good seat!)
2. Spotlight Series: Violin Spectacular! Our Spotlight Series showcases members of our ensemble with our esteemed colleagues, and focuses on solo performances of new and experimental works. Our previous show with Phyllis Chen and Evelyn Farny was a great success, and we are thrilled for our upcoming Violin Spectacular on Thursday, February 21 at 7:00! Come join us at the Kent Art Gallery from 7:00 to 9:00 to enjoy great art, music, and refreshments in an informal setting.
Joining our very own Andie Springer will be Conrad Harris, Pauline Kim Harris, and Francis Liu.

Dear backers, friends, and fans,
With just six days to reach our goal, we need your help. Here are some easy things you can do to support us:
1. Comment! Help us create buzz about our project today to attract attention to our project. You can comment on our kickstarter page and/or our facebook page (facebook.com/transitnewmusic). Comments (rather than “likes” on Facebook) reach more people. You can also post our kickstarter link as your status on facebook with a quick sentence about why you are proud to support new music and emerging artists by donating to TRANSIT.
2. Contact your friends who you do not see listed as our backers. If you have someone in mind who would be interested in supporting our project, we would greatly appreciate you spreading the word.
3. Increase your pledge. We are so humbled and thankful for all of your donations. If every one of our current backers gave just $6 more, that would cover one quarter of what remains to be raised by Saturday!
Thank you again for all of your support. We can’t wait to share this album with you.
TRANSIT
