Big strings descend on the Long Center
Never mind the chilly night — about 1,000 people turned out Friday for the second night of the pubic open house for the new Long Center for the Performing Arts. Visitors toured the new $77 million two-venue complex, sipped cocktails while taking in the sweeping views of downtown Austin and enjoyed a most unusual musical performance.
Bill Close, inventor of the massive Earth Harp, leads members of his **MASS Ensemble in a performance on the Long Center’s City Terrace.

MASS was great! I am so proud of Cameron Morgan who plays guitars and also sings with the group. I have know him since the day he was born and has his own music career with his own group. Chrysta Bell who used to sing with 8 1/2 Inch Nails here in Austin adds her magic vocals, also. If you haven’t heard them check out their website for a sample of the visual/miscal show they put on..amazing!
