About the Event:

Acclaimed director and musician Jim Jarmusch and experimental lute player and composer Jozef van Wissem met nearly 20 years ago, forming a close bond after they ran into each other on the streets of New York City. Since then, van Wissem has composed scores for Jarmusch’s films, like Only Lovers Left Alive, and, in 2011, they began performing and producing records together. Join us for an mesmerizing musical evening of guitar and lute as Jarmusch and van Wissem take the stage.


This event is presented with the support of Experimental Sound Studio.
