From July 28 – August 1, Lorelei Ensemble will collaborate with composers Angélica Negrón, Sarah Kirkland Snider, Tina Tallon, and Pamela Z on the creation of four new works for treble vocal ensemble, which together make up WILD. Testing the limits of modern technology, layering soundtracks of spoken language and the natural world and merging poetry with music, WILD is about controlled borders and vast landscapes, freedom and constraint, clarity and distortion and the ways we use organic and artificial intelligence to resist and embrace wildness in ourselves and the world around us. During the workshop performance on August 1, you will experience the creative process up close and have a chance to ask questions about how AI and other responsive technologies function in music creation, what it is like to interact with them as a performer, and their implications for live performance.
Please note that this performance will be recorded.
