An encore presentation of Carl Stone’s radio interview with art and music patron Betty Freemen (1921-2009). Betty Freeman had made (since 1961) 432 grants and commissions to 81 composers, often early in their careers.The composers she assisted included Lou Harrison, John Cage, La Monte Young, Philip Glass, Steve Reich, John Adams, and many others. Cage dedicated his Freeman Etudes to her. Lou Harrison dedicated his Serenade for Betty Freeman and Franco Assetto to her and her husband, Steve Reich dedicated Variations for Winds, Strings, and Keyboards and Vermont Counterpoint to her, and John Adams’s opera Nixon in China was dedicated to her. The American gamelan Si Betty, built by Harrison and William Colvig in 1979, was named for her.

Carl’s tape composition SUKOTHAI (1977) will be programmed as part of The Society for the Activation of Social Space Through Art and Sound (SASSAS) “Welcome Inn Time Machine” event, part of Pacific Standard Time, the region-wide celebration of post-war art in Southern California that is underway until March
“Welcome Inn Time Machine” is a series of micro concerts that will take place in individual rooms allowing key moments in sound and music history to be experienced simultaneously and sequentially in a single location. It will be a free, six hour event featuring experimental music originating in Southern California, 1949 - 1977. SUKOTHAI will be part of the section that recreates some of the historic concerts in the “Currents” series that took place at the Theater Vanguard in West Hollywood in the late seventies, programmed by Barry Schrader. Among the many works presented at “Welcome Inn Time Machine”: Bruce Nauman’s Violin Tuned D.E.A.D., Pauline Oliveros’ Sonic Meditations, LAFMS’ Pyramid Headphones, James Tenney’s Postal Pieces, excerpts from Barry Scharder’s Lost Atlantis and much more.
