Description
Bob Ostertag David Tudor Composer-in-Residence“…more the sound of lives lived, and lives lost, than any music I have ever heard.” —Music and Sound Output
“Astonishingly, the music never seems artificial. The border between live improvisation and computerized manipulation blurs and is finally made irrelevant by the music which results.” —Jazzthetik
“A gleeful savagery, with the droll wit of Satie's piano pieces, the breathless silences of Japanese music, the collaged clutter of Stockhausen's short-wave radio suites, and the political bite of Brecht/Weill songs." —Keyboard Magazine
Renowned activist, sampling pioneer, and composer/improviser Bob Ostertag collaborates with Mills students to present a re-working and updating of his celebrated sampling project:
Say No More Some More
After placing a solo recording of themselves into a collective pool, each student may then use whatever recording from the pool they wish, in order to construct a musique concrete composition of 2 or 3 minutes. These pieces will be strung together into a sort of chain letter, which will be used as a "score" for a live performance.
