"BloomBars and Columbia Players are excited to host a benefit for the nonprofit Live It Learn It with an eclectic evening of experimental and classical music. The show will start with Boat Burning's "Music for Amplified Guitars, Cello and Tape", followed by The Columbia Players performance of movements from Beethoven (Op. 132) and Debussy string quartets.  Live It Learn It boosts academic achievement and motivation for students in high-poverty DC public schools by supplementing conventional classroom instruction with rigorous, academically focused trips to DC's world-class resources."

The Columbia Players, a DC-based classical string quartet playing everything from Beethoven to Jimi Hendrix, includes Mark Kapeluck (violin), Sara Boyce (violin), Jennifer Murray (viola) and David Rabin (cello).

Boat Burning, an experimental music collective recently relocated to DC from Chapel Hill NC, includes Andras Fekete (guitars, tape manipulations) and David Rabin (cello).
