Acoustic Field
Tuesday, May 24th, 2022
7pm - Free Admission
Short North Stage
(1187 N High St, Columbus, OH 43201)
CODE returns to the New Music at Short North Stage series sponsored by the Johnstone Fund for New Music with “Acoustic Field,” featuring composers from Ohio or who studied in Ohio. The music is fun and engaging and explores all sorts of unique and exciting sonic terrain! Chin Ting Chan's "Acoustic Field" creates a compelling sound world through dense and complex chord structures that celebrate the upper partials of the harmonic series. "Shimmering Dust" by Erin Rogers for flute and cymbal explores "the sonic relationship between air and metal. The title evokes a visual image of...air in its human form – breathed, blown, whispered, sung – and metal acted upon by an element – air, flesh, hair, metal, rubber, plastic." HyeKyung Lee's "Shadowing" for clarinet and saxophone has the musicians "follow each other, sometimes honestly, diligently, and sometimes hesitantly, and in disguise." Marilyn Shrude's beautiful "Notturno" for flute, saxophone and piano was written in memory of Japanese composer, Toru Takemitsu. The performance also features the world premiere of "we quiver, drowning in our breath" by Ohio University composition faculty, Rob McClure. Rob describes the work as "a statement on our ever-warming climate and our central role in this process."
