Event Details

To where nothing ever shared

Two concerts structured around three first performances, of new works for guitar and electronics by Alexander Garsden and Rohan Drape, and of a new work for piano by Anthony Pateras. These pieces are framed by two extended improvisations, in Sydney by Will Guthrie (drums), Laura Altman (clarinet), Monika Brooks (accordion), and in Melbourne by Erkki Veltheim (violin and electronics) and Joe Talia (drums). Connected by a shared concern for working outwards from the acoustical realities of the ‘sounds themselves’, the five works explore distinct musical topographies: manifestations outside of pitch, symbolic patternings and the art of memory, techniques of continual deflection, delicate calculations concerning spectacle and reference, and the gradual accumulation of equivalent consequences.
