Persbericht November 2019
Persbericht November 2019 THE WAVES Espen Sommer Eide in samenwerking met Mari Kvien Brunvoll, Martin Taxt en Jochem Vanden Ecker 15 November 2019 tot en met 2 februari 2020 in Marres, Maastricht. Geïnspireerd door de roman The Waves van Virginia Woolf, maakt de Noorse componist Espen Sommer Eide een gelijknamig ruimtelijk muziekalbum voor Marres dat zowel in het huis zal ‘leven’ tijdens de tentoonstelling, als op vinyl uitgebracht wordt. In het voorafgaande jaar aan de opening van The Waves, tussen de lopende tentoonstellingen door, zijn in de verschillende ruimtes van het huis van Marres nachtelijke optredens opgenomen in samenwerking met de stem Mari Kvien Brunvoll en Martin Taxt op microtonale tuba. Jochem Vanden Ecker werd uitgenodigd om het gehele proces te documenteren. Eide componeert met deze opnames een serie werken die elkaar opvolgen in de ruimte en zowel apart als gezamenlijk te beluisteren zijn. De muziekstukken voeren de bezoeker kamer voor kamer door het gebouw, de schaduwen van de nachtelijke optredens volgend, waarbij de geschiedenis van de desbetreffende ruimten uit de doeken wordt gedaan. Ze horen muziekstukken, melodieën en ritmes, waarbij de stemmen en perspectieven van de uitvoerende artiesten vermenigvuldigd vanuit meerdere hoeken tegelijkertijd klinken, als in een spiegelpaleis van geluid. De muziek verandert het gebouw in een plek waar talloze werelden mogelijk zijn - volledig gevrijwaard van de blik of aanwezigheid van een bepaald voor- of onderwerp. Voor de tentoonstelling maakt Espen Sommer Eide ook een nieuw instrument, ‘The Sonants’, speciaal ontworpen voor het huis van Marres. Een centraal geplaatst licht roteert in de ruimte en triggert de speakers wanneer de lichtsensoren geraakt worden. -

Topical Weill: News and Events
Volume 27 Number 1 topical Weill Spring 2009 A supplement to the Kurt Weill Newsletter news & news events Summertime Treats Londoners will have the rare opportunity to see and hear three Weill stage works within a two-week period in June. The festivities start off at the Barbican on 13 June, when Die Dreigroschenoper will be per- formed in concert by Klangforum Wien with HK Gruber conducting. The starry cast includes Ian Bostridge (Macheath), Dorothea Röschmann (Polly), and Angelika Kirchschlager (Jenny). On 14 June, the Lost Musicals Trust begins a six-performance run of Johnny Johnson at Sadler’s Wells; Ian Marshall Fisher directs, Chris Walker conducts, with Max Gold as Johnny. And the Southbank Centre pre- sents Lost in the Stars on 23 and 24 June with the BBC Concert Orchestra. Charles Hazlewood conducts and Jude Kelly directs. It won’t be necessary to travel to London for Klangforum Wien’s Dreigroschenoper: other European performances are scheduled in Hamburg (Laeiszhalle, 11 June), Paris (Théâtre des Champs-Elysées, 14 June), and back in the Klangforum’s hometown, Vienna (Konzerthaus, 16 June). Another performing group traveling to for- eign parts is the Berliner Ensemble, which brings its Robert Wilson production of Die Dreigroschenoper to the Bergen Festival in Norway (30 May and 1 June). And New Yorkers will have their own rare opportunity when the York Theater’s “Musicals in Mufti” presents Knickerbocker Holiday (26–28 June). Notable summer performances of Die sieben Todsünden will take place at Cincinnati May Festival, with James Conlon, conductor, and Patti LuPone, Anna I (22 May); at the Arts Festival of Northern Norway, Harstad, with the Mahler Chamber Orchestra led by HK Gruber and Ute Gfrerer as Anna I (20 June); and in Metz, with the Orchestre National de Lorraine, Jacques Mercier, conductor, and Helen Schneider, Anna I (26 June). -
Notes on Three Feldman Recordings by John Tilbury
Notes on Three Feldman Recordings by John Tilbury Triadic Memories (with, Howard Skempton Notti Stellate a Vagli) [Atopos CD ATP 012/013, 2008] In preparation for a talk I was to give on Feldman and Skempton, I wrote down the following notes as a kind of aide-memoire. On Softness Softness – also length, and brevity. But ‘not for its own sake’. ‘Virtuosity of restraint’ (Skempton). Alice (in Wonderland) had to accustom herself to new dimensions. Soft ‘as possible’. Relative. Degree and quality of softness depends on the acoustical and the psychological. Awareness of this dynamic quality within softness creates an extraordinary variety. Softness draws the audience into the music - it encourages attentiveness and alertness. It also demands a ‘transcendental’ listening in its search for a revelatory experience. Softness heightens consciousness; also enhances the consciousness, for example, of the idiosyncrasies of the instrument at which one sits. On the unintended This respect for the unintended embodies the notion for the interpreter of nowness, of uniqueness. Accidentalness is an active component, to be convincingly contextualized. The music responds to the contingencies of venue, of temperature, etc. etc. This, together with an emphasis on the sensual and physical qualities of the art of performance, creates an indivisibility of musician and instrument and at best of music and audience; an at-oneness. Accidentalness need not cause embarrassment; rather the accidental (unintended sounds) is to be enjoyed, nourished, sometimes indulged. The ‘accidental’ is a corollary of the extreme softness which Feldman demands and which necessarily involves risk. The player is playing on the edge, on the frontier between sound and no sound. -

Notes from the Underground: a Cultural, Political, and Aesthetic Mapping of Underground Music
Notes From The Underground: A Cultural, Political, and Aesthetic Mapping of Underground Music. Stephen Graham Goldsmiths College, University of London PhD 1 I declare that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Signed: …………………………………………………. Date:…………………………………………………….. 2 Abstract The term ‗underground music‘, in my account, connects various forms of music-making that exist largely outside ‗mainstream‘ cultural discourse, such as Drone Metal, Free Improvisation, Power Electronics, and DIY Noise, amongst others. Its connotations of concealment and obscurity indicate what I argue to be the music‘s central tenets of cultural reclusion, political independence, and aesthetic experiment. In response to a lack of scholarly discussion of this music, my thesis provides a cultural, political, and aesthetic mapping of the underground, whose existence as a coherent entity is being both argued for and ‗mapped‘ here. Outlining the historical context, but focusing on the underground in the digital age, I use a wide range of interdisciplinary research methodologies , including primary interviews, musical analysis, and a critical engagement with various pertinent theoretical sources. In my account, the underground emerges as a marginal, ‗antermediated‘ cultural ‗scene‘ based both on the web and in large urban centres, the latter of whose concentration of resources facilitates the growth of various localised underground scenes. I explore the radical anti-capitalist politics of many underground figures, whilst also examining their financial ties to big business and the state(s). This contradiction is critically explored, with three conclusions being drawn. First, the underground is shown in Part II to be so marginal as to escape, in effect, post- Fordist capitalist subsumption. -
