Music on Main presents 10th Modulus Festival Closing Night on November 9 at 7:30 pm at the Roundhouse.


SAPPHIRE HAZE IS the local musical duo of Cindy Kao on violin and electronics artist Aysha Dulong. Together, they make sounds that Music on Main artistic director David Pay describes as “mesmerizing”.

A recording of their electronic diffusion Luna will be part of a mixed program that brings the 10th Modulus Festival to a close.

Also on the ambitious lineup are performances by pianist Corey Hamm, trumpet player John Korsrud, soprano saxophonist Colin MacDonald, and the Tempest Project Company. (See Stir’s feature article about the 2021 fest here.)
