The TIMARA department is excited to welcome Fred Frith to Oberlin this week! A versatile composer, improviser, and multi-instrumentalist, Frith is best known for his innovative reinvention of the electric guitar going back to the 1970’s. His training primarily comes from playing in rock bands and recording, most notably with Henry Cow. As a professor at Mills College, Fred has mentored several Obies during graduate school, including current professors Peter Swendsen (TIMARA) and Julia Christensen (Art). He will be giving a concert at 8pm Wednesday in Fairchild Chapel (free admission). For more info check out our new music calendar. – WJ
