A Public Workshop, sharing an initial creative process for 2 works-in-progress:
1) SRINGAR: An Intercultural Love-Song Cycle (with Pandits Rajan and Sajan Misra - two of India’s greatest middle-generation khyal singers). We will share our experiments with various ways in which these virtuoso Indian singers can interact with an equally virtuosic improvising new-music ensemble: Corrado Canonici, double bass; Isabelle Carré, flutes; Emily White, trombone; Karin Dornbusch. clarinets; Sascha Armbruster, saxophones; Yvon Bonenfent, extended voice; and a Baroque string quartet.
2) AVATARS: Human-Computer Interactions In The Realm Of Dhrupad. For more than 10 years, the Italian composer Amelia Cuni, studied dhrupad in India. We will share results of three days of experiments exploring interactions between her vocal improvisation and MAX/MSP systems operated by Michael Young and Francis Silkstone.
These are part of a 5-year Project in Intercultural Composition: Arranging Marriages Between Western and South-Asian Art Music.
With funds from AHRC & Asian Music Circuit.
