Explosive new music: Free on Saturday
It’s something of a fitting finale to Fusebox — Golden Hornet Project unleashes new sounds in two free concerts tomorrow that will surround the audience with mesmirizing sound.
PVC in Surround: Piano, Cello and Violin in 5.1 Surround Sound.
When: 2 p.m, and 5 p.m, Saturday May 2
Where: 100 Congress Ave.
Who: Music composed by Peter Stopschinski, Gabriel Prokofiev (US Premiere), DJ Spooky, Josh Robins, and Graham Reynolds. Performed by Reynolds, Stopschinski, Leah Zeger (violin) and Hector Moreno (cello). Sound by Robert Fisher.
Graham Reynolds writes:
“Piano, violin, and cello is one of our favorite combinations, and it’s reasonably compact so we decided to create this show as our tour-able line-up of instruments and pieces. But the surround sound element is not particularly tour-able, so that will most likely be special to Austin and this performance. Robert Fisher is helping us out with this, putting the instruments through crazy effects that will send the sound all over the place. I recorded Austin’s fleet of trash trucks at 5:30 in the morning last week and am building a piece with those sounds in preparation for the Forklift Danceworks show later this year. Peter’s got these crazy drumbeats that swirl around the room.”
