SPACES | improvisational ambient music series

Information for event coordinators, venue reps, and promoters

The SPACES improvisational ambient music series is more experiential and meditative than it is a concert or typical performance. Generally the improv sessions are recorded without an audience or the intent of drawing one, but rather to explore the relationship between sound, the listener, and the surrounding environment. Audiences are welcome and encouraged to watch in silence with a listening mind and heart.

Here's what you need to know

  • Performances are FREE and no admission is ever charged to those in attendance (unless the venue insists or requires it). Venues are NOT charged artist or booking fees, but locations outside Minnesota's Twin City metro area are required to cover travel up front, calculated at $.70 per mile (one way) from Minneapolis, Minnesota to your venue.
  • You are not required to provide a PA system or equipment unless the size of your space requires it and your space has one installed. STOLACE generally provides his own amplification up to the size of a 200-person small cathedral, chapel, or venue.
  • The performances are generally 60 minutes or longer but set lengths tailored to your requirements can be accommodated.
  • No music licensing is required (e.g., ASCAP, BMI, etc.). All of the music is improvisational and original, containing no derivatives of other people's work.
  • The performance footprint is very small, requiring only 8' wide by 6' deep (2.4 meters wide by 1.8 meters deep) of unobstructed, clean, dry, and level space. The performer is generally seated on the floor or standing. A stage isn't entirely necessary unless the spaces calls for it.
  • Access to power is preferred, requiring just two nearby outlets. But if logistics make access to an outlet problematic, STOLACE can provide a portable power brick.
  • No stage lighting is required save for what is useful for helping set the tone and ambiance for the performance. STOLACE may bring his own lighting to further set the ambiance.
