Songpath Remixed January 27, 2011

Last summer, Minnesota native composer and sound artist Ryan Ingebritsen tried something a bit out of the ordinary for his usual musical activities. Having spent the last 10 years composing and performing electro-acoustic music in Chicago for ensembles such as International Contemporary Ensemble, We Can and We Must, and 12 Dimension-Plane of Sound and Vision Orchestra, he was awarded a McKnight Foundation Visiting Composer residency to create and perform what he calls 'Songpaths' in the Minnesota State Parks. ;Songpath; is a compositionally guided listening tour in which Ingebritsen spent weeks hiking in various parks looking for spaces that had certain unique sonic properties that seemed to create a pleasing musical arc as one hiked through them. Come Join Ingebritsen and fellow collaborators in a re-exploration of some of this material in 'Songpath Remixed,' an improvisation based on a video score created from some of the video material he collected during his solo hikes. The musicians will take their cues from the video itself while simultaneously being manipulated in real time by Ingebritsen using various analog and digital processes creating an ambient sound score as fluid and simultaneously intricate as the video footage on which it is based.
