Zeena Parkins + William Winant + Myra Melford to perform at CNMAT

An evening of spontaneous music by three master improvisers. Electro-acoustic composer/improviser, educator, Zeena Parkins is a pioneer of contemporary harp practices. Using expanded techniques, object preparations, and electronic processing she has re-defined the instrument’s capacities. Concurrently, Parkins self-designed a series of one-of-a kind electric instruments. She leans into the harp’s physical limitations pushing its boundaries and impossibilities.

Voicescapes

From Tom Buckner:

Dear Friends,

It is my great pleasure to announce the release today on Chant Records of a new recording of duo improvisations, Voicescapes, by the wonderful Danish singer Randi Pontoppidan and myself. Recorded on the beautiful island of Møn, Denmark in 2018 with no preconceived musical material, no overdubs and no sound sources other than voices, Voicescapes documents the spontaneous music of two kindred souls.

Sincerely, Tom

RANDI PONTOPPIDAN & THOMAS BUCKNER
