PianoPhasing Festival 2020 Premiere
Free (Free)
Kristoffer Zegers – PianoPhasing 2020 (world premiere)
SMTA is proud to launch a global group-piano online festival in December 2020 to bring hope, excitement, joy, and playfulness to share around our world. This festival will feature a commissioned "piano-phasing" composition that allows pianists from of ALL SKILL LEVELS AND AGES from 5 continents to perform harmoniously together in a masterpiece. Pianists capture their part on recording which are then assembled into a final “phased” version of sonic beauty that is collectively assembled according to the timezone where each pianist lives.
This exciting project will include a collective listening premiere with our “lead pianist” being a recording of our singing solar system and mother Earth captured by NASA in 2012 woven into the final mix. It will be a world-premiere experience that is unique in the history of music on our planet and a celebration of the harmonious presence of music in our world and our hearts.
The broadcast will take place at 1pm Pacific.
Broadcast will take place via Zoom "concert hall". Free admission, but guests must request the password to log in and listen. Contact festival chairperson GraceANN Cummings for the password at graceanncummings@outlook.com.
