Aotearoa New Zealand-born American composer Annea Lockwood (b. 1939) brings vibrant energy, ceaseless curiosity, and a profound sense of openness to her music. Lockwood’s lifelong fascination with the visceral effects of sound in our environments and through our bodies—the way sounds unfold and their myriad “life spans”—serves as the focal point for works ranging from concert music to performance art to multimedia installations. Nate Wooley (b.1974) was born in Clatskanie, Oregon. He is known for his idiosyncratic trumpet language and mastery of extended techniques. His music concentrates on the fragility of sound and the encouragement of spontaneous, generative failure. He was the editor of Sound American Publications, a journal dedicated to featuring the ideas and work of musicians in their own words for ten years and continues to work as a writer for New York Review of Books. |
