Electro-Acoustic Orchestra - [excerpt from 3rd piece]

A return trip to The Tranzac for this York U-based ensemble, with Doug Van Nort bringing nine musicians (and a projection artist) to fill the stage area of the Southern Cross with wires and laptops (until the elaborate, hi-res projections took over, it looked rather like a particularly tech-heavy press conference as much as a group). Van Nort conducted and tweaked sounds on his mixing board, building and reconfiguring the soundfields.

[SynapticCircus returns with "a very specially curated evening" on Sunday, April 14th featuring "The Exploded Kit" — five percussionists (Colin Fisher, Nick Fraser, D. Alex Meeks, Ambrose Pottie, and Mark Zurawinski) each playing one part of a drumkit, both separately and together. (The night will also include a solo bass clarinet set from Kathryn Ladano.)]
