SUMMARY:Feven Kidane & Tiny Pyramids Play Sun Ra at VIFF Centre
DESCRIPTION:To celebrate the music of Sun Ra\, two of Vancouver’s strongest creative voices join forces for a one-night only performance at the VIFF Centre\, along with a rare screening of the revolutionary 1974 Afro-Futurist film Space is the Place\, featuring Sun Ra. \nFeven Kidane is a Vancouver-based trumpeter who has been selling out shows at the VIFF Centre\, the Vancouver International Jazz Festival\, and numerous other venues for the past few years.

It’s a wild\, kaleidoscopic whirl of science fiction\, sharp social commentary\, goofy pseudo-blaxploitation stylistics\, and thrilling concert performance\, in which the pharaonic Ra and his Arkestra lead an intergalactic movement to resettle the Black race on their utopian space colony.
