Opening Concert: Resonant Objects
Music
Description
Description
The festival opens with Karen Yu (HK) activating Kenny Wong’s (HK) installation “The Canvas of Resonance,” performing a work written by composer Zihua Tan. Yu, a percussionist, activates the installation’s thunder sheets, refreshing our perspective on an object of fixed identity. This performance is followed by award-winning composer and sound artist Adam Basanta (CAN) performing a set from his new album, “Intricate Connections Formed Without Touch.” Basanta explores a timbral and stylistic spectrum emerging from a single acoustic guitar improvisation. Cut, sliced, re-arranged and folded-over, he creates the vast majority of timbral material heard through a series of laptop improvisations.
