Performance
by David Moore
at the Old Schwamb Mill
Saturday, February 1, 1:00-3:00pm,
painter and musician David
Moore will give a talk “Lyrical
Improvisation in both Music and Visual Art, the dance of the line,”
followed by a musical saw performance, accompanied by pianist Alizon Lissance. As
a musician, Moore revives a virtually lost art, playing the musical saw. He has

As a painter, Moore is the recipient of numerous grants and awards; exhibits
