THURSDAY 3rd June 2010
Times : 8pm
Tickets : £4 Ticket on the door only
A monthly series of salon events, hosted by The Wire magazine, and dedicated to the fine art and practice of thinking and talking about music. The evenings, which take place on the first Thursday of each month, will consist of readings, discussions, panel debates, film screenings, DJ sets and even the occasional live performance.
The third event in the series sets out to crack the enigma of graphic scores - oblique visual strategies designed to access entire new dimensions in sound.
A panel comprising composer-turned-improvisor/writer Philip Clark, composer Claudia Molitor and pianist Ian Pace will discuss the mysterious properties of these radical approaches to musical notation - what they are, what they try to do, how they work, why they sometimes fail, and how they stack up against other experimental music systems.
The night will also feature screenings of Claudia Molitor's 3D graphic scores series (3D glasses will be provided!). Plus: take part in a special audience-participation graphic scores Invisible Jukebox session and win prizes!
