All musical experience arises from various types of mediation: an instrument mediates physical motion, a score mediates the communication of musical ideas, hearing music mediates the perception of time. The composers on this program all expand and alter various sites of mediation in new music as a means to create novel materials. You will see and hear instruments played in new ways, the voice altered, the use of video and theatrical movement, and music which invites you to experience time in a subtle manner.
