Today, we’re delighted to unveil your detailed concert schedule for Big Ears 2019—four days and nights of music featuring more than 100 performances in churches, grand historic theaters, art museum auditoriums, and rock clubs. From the moment Tim Story’s Roedelius Cells turn on Thursday afternoon until Harold Budd’s radiant ambient music ends everything on Sunday night, we’ve programmed our most evocative and ambitious year yet. Start planning your schedule now, and we’ll see you in six weeks.
