Duration: 2 hours with a 1 hour break between the Lecture-Recital and Duo.
LECTURE-RECITAL | 6-7pm | Project Space Upstairs
This lecture concerning Maya Homburger (violin) and Barry Guy’s (double bass) concept and practice of “musical stretching” will give insight into their approach to performance and collaboration, and will demonstrate how they transport the listener seamlessly through various musical styles. They will also explain and demonstrate some of the extended techniques on bass and violin which create new sound worlds. For this listing on the CMC Opportunities page, click HERE.
DUO | 8-9pm | Project Space Upstairs
Maya Homburger and Barry Guy join forces to present a programme of new compositions, improvisations and baroque masterpieces.
This performance will take place within a special loudspeaker system designed to immerse both the audience and the performers in virtual acoustic spaces.* This system imposes new alternative acoustic on the performance space and can render a transparent and realistic sense of other acoustic spaces, such as historic buildings, natural spaces or even synthetic spaces.
Listeners interested in finding out more about the virtual acoustic loudspeaker system are invited to attend this workshop and demonstration.
* This loudspeaker-based virtual acoustic system was invented at Stanford University by Professor Jonathan Abel, Dr Eoin Callery, and Dr Elliot Canfield-Dafilou. It continues to be developed at Stanford University and at the Irish World Academy of Music And Dance in the University of Limerick.
