Tonight we are presenting three musicians from Miami and New York
performing on guitars, bass and electronics. Federico Bonacossa's curiosity
about the current guitar lead him to create a national call for works.
Out of
100 submissions, Bonacossa selected 4 finalists. Kyong Mee Choi's It only needs
to be seen (one of the selected pieces that is presented tonight) was inspired
by the Steve Hagen’s saying, “Truth does not need any explanation. It only needs
to be seen. The only way we can be free in each moment is to become what the
moment is.”
Choi wants the audience to experience being in the moment through
the stream of sound that does not need any explanation but only needs to be
heard. Bonacossa's Sequitur VIII will feature a canonic layering of real-time
audio processing in MAX/MSP.
The Miami-based up-and-coming bassist and composer
Kyle Motle will join Bonacossa in Tragos for double bass and live electronics
that explores scratch tones and open strings. Bryan Jacobs's Trigger will
investigate the idea of presets in music. In fact, there are as many triggered
presets as there are notes in this work! Compact Scecenes will feature Jacobs on
guitar while operating fixed and live electronics. "This piece has a little to
do with Milli Vanilli mouthing the words and a little to do with extending the
acoustic tradition." BJ
