Singing Together
Level: Open to all
This workshop investigates "amateur" or "untrained" approaches to music in the context of contemporary performance, with an emphasis on the voice, relationships between language and music, and actually singing songs together because nobody goes to church anymore.
Bio:
Chris Peck investigates the peculiarities of listening and perception through a diverse practice that includes compositions for large untrained groups, interdisciplinary performance collaborations, and improvisation with the computer. Ongoing projects include Listening Music for the Age of Crystal Moon Cone, a series of ambient electroacoustic performances and recordings with Stephen Rush and Jon Moniaci, Brooklyn Adult Recorder Choir, directed with choreographer Beth Gill, the Live Sh-- performance series curated with Chase Granoff, and Manpack Variant, an electronics duo with Jaime Fennelly. Chris currently lives in New Hampshire, where he is pursuing an MA in Electro-Acoustic Music at Dartmouth College.
