Amelia Rosselli Celebration in Words and Music

In this hybrid event, Scrambler will play original music composed by Peter Nelson-King to celebrate the publication in English translation of Amelia Rosselli’s Notes Scatter and Lost, the final volume of local Entre Rios Books’ landmark trilogy of Rosselli’s shorter texts. Local poet, teacher, and Rosselli translator Deborah Woodard will read from all three of the books. She’ll be joined by writer Rachel Karyo, and Il Punto facilitator Alessandra Arosio, who will read excerpts from the original Italian.

Peter Nelson-King is a multi-instrumentalist, composer and writer based in Seattle who has mounted a number of adventurous solo and collaborative shows at Chapel Performance Space.  They return to Wayward Music for this unique event bringing some of Seattle’s best experimental musicians, including saxophonists Neil Welch and Brian Bermudez, clarinetist Jenny Ziefel, and cellist Mary Riles.
