Hello--

On Sunday, November 14, 1999 at 1:00pm, I'll be presenting a concert that
will include three recent works of mine.

Each work features music which was created or touched somehow by Csound, and
two of the works will feature live musicians performing and interacting with
Tape. Within (Piano and Tape) and Against (String Quartet and Tape) are the
two works that feature live musicians. Within and Against explore how live
performers can interact with a pre-recorded and essentially unchanging tape,
and require that the performers make decisions about whether to play when
the tape is sounding or silent. (I also wrote a bit about Within for Hans
Mikelson's Csound magazine earlier this year.)

The work for tape alone, Machina ex Deis, is an extended composition
incorporating the mundane sounds of travel (airport and hotel waiting areas,
etc.), leisure (sports arenas, ballrooms, etc.) and computer generated
sounds derived from chess games.

The concert will be given at the Somerville Museum, Somerville, MA, which is
located at One Westwood Road in Somerville.

Please let me know if you'd like more details or location info.
