Meridian Music: Composers in Performance presents sfSound November 11, 2009

Meridian Music: Composers in Performance presents the sfSound Group. Over the last few years, sfSound has been presenting concerts of experimental music from the 60’s and 70’s avant garde alongside current music from the composition and improvisation scenes of today. For this event, they have taken the same approach with music from Germany and Austria. Helmut Lachenmann’s Dal niente (Interiur III) predates the “lowercase” improv scene by 30 years, while Olga Neuwirth’s Fondementa is inspired by recent trends in electronic music. The concert concludes with Karlheinz Stockhausen’s KURZWELLEN, which specifies amplified instruments, live electronics, and shortwave radios in an semi-structured graphic score. Performers include: Christopher Froh (percussion and shortwave radio), Matt Ingalls (clarinet and bass clarinet), John Ingle (baritone and tenor saxophone, and shortwave radio), Christopher Jones (electronics), and Monica Scott (cello, and shortwave radio).
