TIMARA Guest Concert - Parallax

Monday, November 20, 2017 at 8:00pm to 9:30am

Wilder Hall
135 West Lorain Street, Oberlin, OH 44074

In the work A Parallax View, the improvisation trio Parallax and composer/sound artist Anders Tveit explore the area between composed and improvised music and the contrasts between acoustic and electronic sounds.

In contrast to traditional multichannel electroacoustic works, where the position of the sound and sound objects in a room are pre-determined, Parallax and Tveit undertake a more improvised exploration of the listening room itself.

The audience and the performers are positioned in a circle surrounded by loudspeakers, where the physical room, the loudspeakers, the acoustic instruments and the electronic sounds blend into one ‘instrument’.
