1983-2013: the Hearts Of Space 30th & 40th Anniversary Celebration and Music Conference 2013
The Hearts of Space radio program was born in 1973 at KPFA-FM in Berkeley. We began national syndication 10 years later in 1983. So 2013 is a year of milestones — in addition to the 30 and 40 year anniversaries, in January we reached program #1,000 in the HOS series!
We’re celebrating with a rare and special live event at the Embassy Suites Hotel and Conference Center near our home base in bucolic San Rafael, California, 13 miles north of San Francisco.
AMBIcon 2013 is a weekend event hosted by Hearts of Space producer Stephen Hill, organized around 4 live surround-sound concerts featuring two artists in each, for a total of eight individual performances by core Hearts of Space musicians Hans Christian, Stephan Micus, Jeff Pearce, Robert Rich, Steve Roach, Michael Stearns, Stellamara, and Tim Story.
Live Surround-Sound Concerts:
Saturday afternoon, May 4 – Jeff Pearce, Robert Rich
Saturday evening, May 4 – Tim Story, Michael Stearns
Sunday afternoon, May 5 – Stephen Micus, Steve Roach
Sunday evening, May 5 – Hans Christian, Stellamara
Morning Sessions:
On Saturday, an artist panel discussion and Q&A session moderated by Stephen Hill.
On Sunday, a special presentation by English music writer Mark Prendergast, author of The Ambient Century.
