Apparitions – Avant Premiere

Thank you to everyone who came out to the World Premiere of Apparitions of The Four Pillars. It was an amazing and meditative night.

I've uploaded a bunch of the photos to Flickr here and this is one of my favorites:

The projection created by Oscar Henriquez is a true psychedelic pleasure to perform in.

The avant-premiere, with Will Lang on trombone, will take place on February 27th at 8PM at Wild Project, 195 East third street - as a part of the Avant Music Festival,

I hope you can join me for another immersive meditative experience.

Process and Apparitions of The Four Pillars

In a week, we will be presenting the world premiere of my latest piece, Apparitions of The Four Pillars, as part of the Avant Music Festival - I wanted to share a bit about my process on what has turned into the most radical work I've written in a long time.

Ever since I got my first toy organ in early 2009 I've been brewing a piece that would involve a number of organs, sine waves, and performers. Something modular, and maybe a little tiny bit more portable than the behemoth that is Doleo Æternus.
