Celebrating The Velvet Underground at BAM

This year marks the 50th anniversary of the release of The Velvet Underground & Nico, an album that helped define the downtown NYC artistic milieu of the ‘60s and has had an outsized influence on experimental underground music ever since. To celebrate this milestone, Velvet Underground founding member and notable electric violist John Cale will be joining the Wordless Music Orchestra for a three-night run of performances starting this Thursday night at BAM’s Howard Gilman Opera H
