chamber music of acoustic and electronics 8 (experimental night )
シリーズ8回目。今回はニューヨーク在住、台湾人の両親を持つアメリカ生まれのサウンド&グラフィック・アーティスト、Che Chen をフィーチャーしています。バイオリンとオシレーターを用い、民俗音楽の持つ伝統的な手法を取り込んだ新しいサウンドを聴かせます。
オープニングを飾るのは古典的な感覚をモダンなセンスと技法で聴かせる”表現”。アコースティックの自然なアンサンブルを大切にしているユニットです。
そして、”PERSPECTIVE EMOTION (透視的情動)” 主宰、国内外で高い評価を得ている即興演奏家 向井千恵とChe Chenがそれぞれのソロ演奏を聴かせた後、コラボレーションのデュオを行います。
最後に、2007年にドイツで行われた3日間に渡るアヴァンギャルド・フェスティバルにおいて大トリをつとめたSAWADA + HARADAが、知る人ぞ知るVJ界の奇才、岩下達朗とコラボをして幕を閉じます。
実験精神にあふれた一夜になると思います。

———————————-
Che Chen is a sound and graphic artist based in Brooklyn and Stonybrook, New York. As a solo performer, Che uses stringed, wind, reed and percussion instruments, reel to reel tape machines, oscillators and other musical and “non-musical” objects in works that explore his interests in perceptual phenomena and global folk music traditions. Che’s performances often utilize acoustic and electronic sound sources placed in various locations around the performance area in order to explore the phenomena of difference tones (closely tuned pitches that result in beating patterns), phasing, repetition, decay, the spacialisation of sounds, and the structural relationship between “audience” and “performer.” Recent solo recordings have been explorations of idiosyncratic tunings for the violin that are intended to be played by bowing harmonics. Che also plays in a duo with multi-instrumentalist, Robbie Lee, in Jozef Van Wissem’s Heresy of the Free Spirit—a trio that plays arrangements of Van Wissem’s lute pieces as well as free improvisations—and in True Primes, his duo with singer/percussionist, Rolyn Hu. As an anthologist, he has produced the private press artists’ magazine, O Sirhan, O Sirhan, a publication inspired by Wallace Berman’s Semina, Aspen Journal and the Fluxus design work of George Maciunas, and Attention Patterns, a 2 LP + booklet set featuring Pauline Oliveros, Eliane Radigue, Yoshi Wada and Sun Circle.
Che has shared bills with Sir Richard Bishop, Paul Metzger, Susan Alcorn, Jozef Van Wissem, Mountains, Maria Chavez, Elodie Lauten, Mouthus, Sightings, R.Keenan Lawler, Brian Chase (Yeah Yeah Yeahs), Mike Wexler, Daniel Carter, Jeff Shurdut, among others.
