Ambient Acoustic Electric Works

« previous episode | next episode »

Thursday, March 19, 2009

Hear ambient works for acoustic and electronic ensembles on this New Sounds. A project of the Brooklyn-based pianist and composer David Moore, Bing & Ruth makes the most of layered and atmospheric melody. With a horde of traditional acoustic instruments, Bing and Ruth synthesize expansive soundscapes and quiet microtonal textures in these slow-developing, visceral compositions. For this New Sounds, we'll hear Moore's "Chaperone to a Civil War." Plus, music by the Brooklyn drone-duo Mountains, audiovisual composer Mike Vernusky, and more.

Adriana from Am. Mus. Nat. Hist.

A sort of jealousy/envy song (very painful) is ABBA's The winner takes it all (from Super Trouper).
