416 Commissions – Emily Lynch Victory and Fletcher Barnhill

January 25, 2016 @ 7:30 pm - 11:00 pm

$5

From Cedar Website –

Emily Lynch Victory (performing second)

Composer, Zach Zubow, and painter, Emily Lynch Victory, collaborated to produce a new, three-movement work for piano, with three accompanying paintings, called 3P3.  Each movement of 3P3 features a different style of composition and follows a specific mathematical base counting system. Every aspect of the music is dictated by the numbers, similar to the total serialism movement and is reiterated in the paintings by Victory. Not only are pitches, rhythms, dynamics, articulations, colors, shapes, and patterns controlled by the counting systems, but also the performance techniques, form, and range of the piano as well.

         

 Fletcher Barnhill (performing first)

A collection of duets reflecting on the intensity of drought conditions in California’s Central Valley & the impact that scarcity has on us here in Minnesota. Inspired by a four-year tour cycle from Minneapolis to California, the piece will meditate in appreciation of the accessibility we have here in the Midwest to clean sources of water. Combining chord structures & instrumentation of traditional surf music with more processed electronic voices & vocals, Fletcher will work with collaborators; Markus Lunkenheimer (Skoal Kodiak, Soaking Rasps), Sophie Weil (Syko Friend, Joint Custody), Adam Werven (Larry Wish & his Guys), Nona Marie Invie (RONiiA,  Dark Dark Dark, Anonymous Choir), & Mark McGee (RONiiA, MDS) to debut a bleak, slow-moving score– setting a backdrop to a harsh reality we all share. The piece will be set to visuals produced by Fletcher & Issac Gale.
