This year’s Avant Garden Party is titled Thai Getaway. New Music Works hosts an all-too-rare visit of classical Thai music and dance performed by the Piphat Ensemble of Wat Buddhanusorn (from Fremont and Bangkok). The lovely venue is an island oasis pocketed discreetly along the Live Oak-Capitola border. Experience blends of vibrant Thai music and dance, music for flute & harp and a host of guest artists, along with S.E. Asian cuisine, created by Chefs Jozseph Shultz, David Jackman, and area Thai chefs.

Simon Hutchinson will perform pieces by Wolff, Frith and Ford, as well as his own “Tr!o” with the Contemporary Music Collective.
