    Lucie Vítková (1985, Boskovice, CZ); +1 347 967 2997; [email protected]; http://www.vitkovalucie.com. I am a composer, performer and improviser of accordion, harmonica, voice and dance from the Czech Republic. My work pursues two lines of enquiry: my compositional practice focuses on sonification (compositions based on abstract models derived from physical objects), while my improvisational practice explores characteristics of discrete spaces through the interaction between sound and movement. Recently, I have become particularly interested in the question of social relationships in music and their implications for the structural organization of musical pieces. I explore this theme in all aspects of my work.

  • Charlemagne Palestine 17 Mai – 19 Novembre 2017
    Dossier Exposition mahj.org de presse Charlemagne Palestine 17 mai – 19 novembre 2017 © Charlemagne Palestine Charlemagne Palestine 17 mai – 19 novembre 2017 Sculptures, peintures, installations visuelles et sonores, films et concerts... Charlemagne Palestine investit le mahJ à l’occasion d’une exposition personnelle, première du genre dans un musée français. Dans les écuries de l'hôtel de Saint-Aignan, il déploie une installation qui mêle œuvres historiques et nouvelles productions, faisant évoluer le visiteur au cœur de son univers foisonnant, où les peluches tiennent un rôle de premier ordre. Né à Brooklyn en 1947 sous le nom de Chaim Moshe Palestine, il rejoint, enfant, la chorale juive de Stanley Sapir pour atténuer par le chant les effets de son bégaiement. Élevé dans une famille originaire d’Odessa, il est partagé entre une éducation traditionnelle et son goût pour les formes artistiques expérimentales. Dès les années 1960, il évolue aux côtés de nombreuses figures de l'avant-garde new-yorkaise, dont La Monte Young, Terry Riley ou John Cage. Sa pratique du chant, du carillon, de l’orgue puis du piano lui permet de développer, à partir des années 1970, une relation physique et vibratoire à l’espace, à son corps et à ceux de l’auditoire. Ses performances s’adaptent aux contextes et aux instruments qu’il utilise, engendrant un dialogue avec les lieux qui le reçoivent. La dimension totale de sa démarche est à l’image des peluches qu’il recueille et expose : public idéal, totems, communauté choyée et perdue qu’il cherche à reconstruire, elles concrétisent aussi le caractère animiste de son œuvre.

    Presenting the New: Battles around New Music in New York in the Seventies A Dissertation SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY Joshua David Jurkovskis Plocher IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY David Grayson, Adviser December 2012 © Joshua David Jurkovskis Plocher 2012 i Acknowledgements One of the best things about reaching the end of this process is the opportunity to publicly thank the people who have helped to make it happen. More than any other individual, thanks must go to my wife, who has had to put up with more of my rambling than anybody, and has graciously given me half of every weekend for the last several years to keep working. Thank you, too, to my adviser, David Grayson, whose steady support in a shifting institutional environment has been invaluable. To the rest of my committee: Sumanth Gopinath, Kelley Harness, and Richard Leppert, for their advice and willingness to jump back in on this project after every life-inflicted gap. Thanks also to my mother and to my kids, for different reasons. Thanks to the staff at the New York Public Library (the one on 5th Ave. with the lions) for helping me track down the SoHo Weekly News microfilm when it had apparently vanished, and to the professional staff at the New York Public Library for Performing Arts at Lincoln Center, and to the Fales Special Collections staff at Bobst Library at New York University. Special thanks to the much smaller archival operation at the Kitchen, where I was assisted at various times by John Migliore and Samara Davis.

  • Rethinking Minimalism: at the Intersection of Music Theory and Art Criticism
    Rethinking Minimalism: At the Intersection of Music Theory and Art Criticism Peter Shelley A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2013 Reading Committee Jonathan Bernard, Chair Áine Heneghan Judy Tsou Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Music Theory ©Copyright 2013 Peter Shelley University of Washington Abstract Rethinking Minimalism: At the Intersection of Music Theory and Art Criticism Peter James Shelley Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Dr. Jonathan Bernard Music Theory By now most scholars are fairly sure of what minimalism is. Even if they may be reluctant to offer a precise theory, and even if they may distrust canon formation, members of the informed public have a clear idea of who the central canonical minimalist composers were or are. Sitting front and center are always four white male Americans: La Monte Young, Terry Riley, Steve Reich, and Philip Glass. This dissertation negotiates with this received wisdom, challenging the stylistic coherence among these composers implied by the term minimalism and scrutinizing the presumed neutrality of their music. This dissertation is based in the acceptance of the aesthetic similarities between minimalist sculpture and music. Michael Fried’s essay “Art and Objecthood,” which occupies a central role in the history of minimalist sculptural criticism, serves as the point of departure for three excursions into minimalist music. The first excursion deals with the question of time in minimalism, arguing that, contrary to received wisdom, minimalist music is not always well understood as static or, in Jonathan Kramer’s terminology, vertical. The second excursion addresses anthropomorphism in minimalist music, borrowing from Fried’s concept of (bodily) presence.

  • THE ORCHESTRA of FUTURIST NOISE INTONERS Luciano Chessa, Director
    Intonarumori, ArtBasel Miami Beach, 2011, photo by Javier Sanchez THE ORCHESTRA OF FUTURIST NOISE INTONERS Luciano Chessa, Director A Performa 09 Commission These eccentric hurdy-gurdy instruments first created in 1913 still sounded musically radical after all these years. Roberta Smith for The New York Times The Orchestra of Futurist Noise Intoners is the only complete replica of futurist composer/sound artist Luigi Russolo’s legendary intonarumori orchestra. The orchestra tours worldwide, presenting concerts that feature historical and new works commissioned from an all-star cast of experimental composers, some performing live alongside this orchestra of raucous mechanical synthesizers. The orchestra’s composers include Sonic Youth’s founding guitarist Lee Ranaldo, seminal composer/vocalist Joan La Barbara, Einstürzende Neubauten frontman and Nick Cave collaborator Blixa Bargeld, avant-garde saxophonist John Butcher, Deep Listening pioneer Pauline Oliveros, Faith No More and Mr. Bungle vocalist Mike Patton, avant-garde musician Elliott Sharp, and composer/vocalist Jennifer Walshe collaborating with late composer and film/video artist Tony Conrad, among others. For further details and touring information contact Esa Nickle at Performa on +1 212 366 5700, or email [email protected] HISTORY As part of its celebration of the 100th anniversary of Italian Futurism, the Performa 09 biennial, in collaboration with the Experimental Media and Performing Arts Center (EMPAC) and the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art (SFMOMA), invited Luciano Chessa to reconstruct Russolo’s intonarumori. Supervising Bay Area craftsman Keith Carey, Chessa succeeded in recreating for the first time Russolo’s earliest intonarumori orchestra, originally unveiled in Milan in the Summer of 1913 (16 instruments—8 noise families of 1-3 instruments each, in various registers).
