La Monte Young, Marian Zazeela: Sound and Light Environment, continuing installation. Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays. Young and Zazeela characterize the Sound and Light Environment as "a time installation measured by a setting of continuous frequencies in sound and light." In the light environment Marian Zazeela presents four works, two environmental: Imagic Light and Magenta Day, Magenta Night, in installations specifically designed for the site; and two sculptural: the neon work, Dream House Variation I, and the wall sculpture, Ruine Window 1992 from her series, Still Light. In the environment Imagic Light, Zazeela projects pairs of colored lights on mobile forms to create seemingly three-dimensional colored shadows in a luminous field. More

Radio Grenouille

Ends & Entries is a sound-art series of 15 original 7-minute pieces about five cities on the edge of Europe: Marseille, Liverpool, Gdansk, Napoli, and Istanbul. Why these cities ? Big ports, of mixed population, with a long history, more open to the outside world than integrated to their own countries, industrial cities on decline that try their luck with culture and, notably, with European Capitals of Culture. They are all Cities on the edge. They are all Ends and Entries of Europe.It's brought to you by Radio Grenouille, Marseille. Tune in to webcasts on free103point9 Online Radio at www.free103point9.org every day at 8 a.m. and 11 p.m. Nov. 17-23.

JB Floyd: New Music for the Yamaha Disklavier™ and Raphael Mostel: intimate, acoustic. For many years, JB Floyd has been exploring the myriad possibilities of the Yamaha Disklavier™ — the modern answer to the player piano — and combining it with both Computer Assisted Virtual Instruments and live, acoustic performers. Floyd will premiere a new setting of Daniel Abdal-Hayy Moore’s poem "In Crossing The Busy Street," featuring baritone Thomas Buckner, plus other new compositions and improvisations. Also joining Floyd for this concert will be pianist Liana Pailodze, a rising star on the music scene from University of Miami. “Yamaha artist James Robert Floyd personifies the Renaissance man. He is a teacher, performer and composer who has written in almost every musical genre.” — yamaha.com. Disklavier™ provided by Yamaha Artist Services.
Raphael Mostel will present a rare performance of intimate solo works, featuring previews of his Letter to Benoit Mandelbrot and his Thirteen Ways of Looking at a Black Bela. “The music of Raphael Mostel, one of New York’s most original composers, has always evoked the subtle and continuous sounds of nature: nocturnal insects, the wind, the distant howling of wolves, the music of the spheres, cosmic dramas.” — Kyle Gann, The New York Times More
