As part of the festival IANNIS XENAKIS: COMPOSER, ARCHITECT, VISIONARY organized by the Drawing Center and curated by Sharon Kanach and Carey Lovelace, Diapason will present an overview of Xenakis’s tape pieces in a multichannel environment. On Saturday February 6 at 7pm, German sound artist Daniel Teige will perform a selection of these works adapted to the architecture and acoustics of Diapason’s main space. The concert will consist of five major works, some of the most important electronic music compositions of the 20th century, and last 3 plus hours. Thanks to the generosity of the Electronic Music Foundation and Joel Chadabe, Diapason will use a special 8 channel system for the diffusion of these pieces. The concert is not to be missed!
