retrospective concert of the music of Bard professor, composer, and performer Richard TeitOn Wednesday, April 24, there will be a retrospective concert of the music of Bard professor, composer, and performer Richard Teitelbaum. The program, presented by The Bard Center, is free and open to the public and will begin in Olin Hall at 8:00 p.m.Teitelbaum is, according to the New York Times, "the most creative improvising synthesizer soloist in contemporary music." In addition to works featuring Teitelbaum in an improvisatory context, the program will include several lesser-known examples of his strictly notated compositions, offering samples of his work in a variety of genres and techniques spanning almost 40 years. The earliest is Intersections, a solo piece composed in 1963 that employs a 12-tone technique, to be performed by pianist Marc Peloquin. Ralph Samuelson will perform a contrasting piece, Hi Gaeshi Hachi Mi Fu , written for the meditative Japanese end-blown bamboo flute, the shakuhachi , a centuries-old instrument long associated with Zen Buddhism. Composed in 1974 in traditional Japanese shakuhachi notation, this is one of Teitelbaum's first compositions representing his ongoing interest in traditional non-Western music. It is also one of the earliest shakuhachi pieces written by any Western composer. In a very different, though not totally unrelated vein, the program will continue with In Tune, a piece in which amplified biological signals of the human body, such as breath, heartbeats, and brain waves, are orchestrated live by the Moog synthesizer. This work from the mid-sixties is Teitelbaum's first electronic work to be performed live and one of the first pieces to use high-tech, meditational biofeedback techniques in a musical context. Teitelbaum says that he will "resuscitate the vintage modular Moog that was first used for this work in 1967." He will also perform Shrine (In Memoriam) , a work from the mid-seventies that grew out of his encounter with the German terrorist group Baader-Meinhof. He sees this work as a meditation on violence that may resonate with the current political situation. Teitelbaum will be joined by two of the leading figures in improvised music today, pianist Marilyn Crispell and multi-instrumentalist Joe McPhee. The program will conclude with a performance of a new Teitelbaum work featuring the Middle Eastern plucked string instrument, the oud. This highly expressive lute-like instrument will be played by the noted virtuoso George Mgrdichian. Microtonal Arabic scales will be contrasted and integrated with Western sounds and Teitelbaum's interactive digital technology to create a new, cross-cultural composition. + Post comment/question/reply
