“Fathom Peaks Unseen” Performance in Brooklyn

Dear Friends,

The S.E.M. Ensemble (with conductor Petr Kotik) performing at the Willow Place Auditorium.

On Wednesday, April 6th at 7pm, the S.E.M. Ensemble will perform works for string quartet, double bass, percussion, and marimba. The program will combine music of the 1950s by Morton Feldman; the 1990s, by Frederic Rzewski and Alvin Lucier; recent works by Petr Kotik, Ana Sokolovic, and Jordan Dykstra, and a premiere by Daniel O'Connor. The concert explores musical relationships spanning seventy years, and puts forth pieces that depart from the concept of narrative drama popularized with early classicism. My piece “Fathom Peaks Unseen” (2016) — which was first released on my album The Arrow of Time by New World Records in 2020 — will be paired with Alvin Lucier’s “Navigations for Strings” (1991). The performance will take place at the Willow Place Auditorium (26 Willow Place, Brooklyn, NY) and tickets are free, but please RSVP here.

For now,

Jordan
