At this concert, composer Brett Austin Eastman and flutist Jessie Nucho presented the first in a three-concert series on the theme of Feedback. Often overlooked, feedback is one of the most important aspects of life. It exists not just in music but in everything we do and experience, from something as simple as call-and-response to processes as complex as machine-learning or even the growth of a living organism. Feedback is inherent to all interactions: human to human, human to machine, machine to machine. In Eve Beglarian’s From the Same Melancholy Fate, each new performance is derived from the compilation of every past performance and as a result is an ever-changing piece. Richard Reed Parry’s Duet For Heart and Breath takes feedback from the bodies of the performers themselves–pulse and breath create the parameters of the music. Elainie Lillios’s electroacoustic Sleep’s Undulating Tide explores deep intimacy and love, which are themselves forms of feedback. Also featured on the program is Anahita Abbasi’s no, I am not roaming aimlessly and the world premiere of Brett Austin Eastman’s In Response.
The broadcast begins at 7pm Pacific / 10pm Eastern.
