One week of music at the Stone, NYC
The Stone
April 29 Tuesday
8 pm Jennifer Choi (violin) Felix Fan (cello) Annie Gosfield (sampling keyboard)Marco Cappelli (guitar)
Jennifer Choi plays the US premiere of the acoustic version of Long Waves and Random Pulses, which uses extended techniques, noise, and notes to evoke jammed radio signals. Referencing the Bach Chaconne in D minor, the piece premiered in 2013 at Holland's Oudemuziek festival of early music.
Fabulous frequent collaborator Felix Fan performs The Harmony of the Body-Machine, for cello and machine sounds, Four Roses, a duo with Gosfield inspired by whiskey and detuned pianos and new work.
Marco Cappelli plays Marked by a Hat, a "right hand only" piece for 8 microtonally tuned sympathetic strings on his unique "extreme guitar."
10 pm Sylvie Courvoisier (piano) Ha-Yang Kim (cello) Annie Gosfield (sampling keyboard)
Annie creates a hallucinatory distorted mirror of phantom electronics, drawn exclusively from her extensive library of extended and mutated piano and cello sounds, merging and colliding with two mistresses of extended techniques: Courvoisier on piano, Kim on cello. This improvising trio first collaborated in 2010.
April 30 Wednesday
8pm Kathleen Supove (piano) MIVOS Quartet: Olivia De Prato and Joshua Modney (violins) Victor Lowrie (viola) Mariel Roberts (cello)
Kathleen Supove performs Shattered Apparitions of the Western Wind. Imagined as a hallucinatory duet with Claude Debussy, it couples Supove's wild playing with distorted fragments of the prelude What the West Wind Saw, on site recordings of Hurricane Sandy, and lush Debussy harmonies.
MIVOS quartet plays The Blue Horse Walks on the Horizon, inspired by the surreal radio broadcasts and codes used by European resistance groups in World War II. It incorporates musical materials drawn from the mysterious Messages Personnels broadcast to the French Resistance, a silken code scarf used by Danish Resistance members, and the transformative processes of encryption.
Olivia dePrato performs a piece for violin and Sputnik, Lost Signals and Drifting Satellites.
10 pm Brian Chase, Roger Kleier, and Annie Gosfield
This improvising trio includes the powerhouse drummer of the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, longtime collaborator guitarist Roger Kleier, and Gosfield on piano and sampling keyboard.
May 1 Thursday
8 pm String Noise: Pauline Kim Harris, Conrad Harris (violins)
The working premiere of Invisible Interference and String Noise, a concert-length piece for two violins and electronics composed in close collaboration with the dynamic violin duo of Pauline Kim Harris and Conrad Harris. Inspired by the transformations, collisions, and wild sonic phenomena of jammed radio signals, this new work will combine clandestine radio broadcasts, improvisation, and traditional notation. The two violinists’ roles will shift in a soundfield where music, noise, and pure signal meld and collide, evoking the jamming process both acoustically and electronically.
10 pm Ikue Mori (electronics) and Annie Gosfield (sampling keyboard)
The second set continues the theme of radio jamming: the purely electronic counterpart is a collaborative piece inspired by jammed radio, colliding audio, and battling signals as interpreted by the incomparable electronics pioneer Ikue Mori and Gosfield. Samples, processes, and sounds are drawn from research conducted during Gosfield’s fellowship at the American Academy in Berlin in 2012.
May 2 Friday
8 pm Annie Gosfield (sampling keyboard) Roger Kleier (guitar) Ches Smith (drums/percussion)
Gosfield's trio performs EWA7, created during a residency in the factories of Nuremberg, Germany, mixing metal, machines, and surface noise of industrial environments. This signature piece has been performed in factories, concert halls, and festivals internationally. It will be presented at The Stone in a more intimate setting.
10 pm Stephen Gosling (piano) James Ilgenfritz (bass)
Stephen Gosling performs Lightning Slingers and Dead Ringers for piano and sampler, a wild ride through original analog synth sounds, machine samples, and careening prepared piano, along with other works for piano to be announced.
James Ilgenfritz performs Rolling Sevens and Dreaming Elevens, a new work for contrabass that incorporates an electronic aesthetic into a purely acoustic piece.
May 3 Saturday
8 pm Billy Martin, Roger Kleier, Annie Gosfield
10 pm Billy Martin, Roger Kleier, Annie Gosfield, and Chris Cochrane
Billy Martin, best known for his work with Medeski, Martin, and Wood joins longtime musical partners Gosfield and Kleier for a night of improvisation featuring a trio at 8, joined by Chris Cochrane for the 10PM set.
May 4 Sunday
8 pm Annie Gosfield (piano and sampling keyboard) Max Mandel (viola) Eric Huebner (piano)
A rare solo set by Gosfield, the first in 15 years in New York City, that includes pieces for sampler, piano, detuned radios, baseballs, and cement mixer, including her own versions of Phantom Shakedown, Brooklyn, October 5, 1941, Lightning Slingers and Dead Ringers, and Blue Serge, coupled with interludes and ephemera for sampler and piano.
Plus Tenacious Friction and Swerving Conviction, a raucous 2014 work for viola and piano performed by Max Mandel and Eric Huebner.
10 pm George Kentros (violin) Max Mandel (viola) Eric Huebner (piano) Marco Cappelli (guitar)
Stockholm-based violinist George Kentros performs the premiere of a 3-part radio inspired trilogy started 10 years ago and performed as a whole for the first time tonight. Kentros commissioned Lost Signals and Drifting Satellites in 2003 for violin and satellite sounds. Now the piece has become a 30 minute work that incorporates jammed radio signals, shortwave sounds, morse code, and many more unusual sounds that have passed through the airwaves in the 20th century, interpreted and enhanced by Kentros’ commanding control of extended techniques.
Plus Tenacious Friction and Swerving Conviction, a raucous 2014 work for viola and piano performed by Max Mandel and Eric Huebner.
and Marked by a Hat, a detuned, right hand only piece composed for Marco Cappelli's "Extreme Guitar" project.
