If you happen to be near City Hall (600 4th Ave.) around lunch-time, today, interactive chamber music group Simple Measures will be performing an hour long sneak preview of their first concert series, With Strings Attached: the Political Dimension. The group will perform in the lobby, as part of the Seattle Presents free concert series.

Today’s concert is Votes for Notes, an exploration of democracy and decision making: the group will play a composition by Francis Hopkins, a signer of the Declaration of Independence, and excerpts from Beethoven’s quartet for strings, “The Difficult Decision.” The audience can vote to determine what music will close the concert. September 4th, 12:00 PM – 1:00 PM
