Synergy Percussion Presents Xenakis Vs Pateras
Two immersive performances of contemporary percussion compositions.
Overview
Two immersive nights of music are coming to Carriageworks. In honour of their 40th anniversary, Synergy Percussion is presenting Xenakis vs Pateras, a performance of contemporary percussion scores by renowned composers.
The first night will feature Pleiades,which was composed in 1978 by Iannis Xenakis. It combines the different sounds of percussion instruments, ranging from drums to vibraphones. A performance of Australian composer Anthony Pateras' original work Beauty Will Be Amnesiac or Will Not Be At All is presented the next night as a counterpoint to Pleiades. Pateras incorporates many of the same percussion instruments but sound engineer Jérôme Noetinger will overlay an electronica sound using six different channels of electronic sound design.
The musicians will be set up on different platforms throughout the space in Carriageworks, allowing the audience to move freely around the room. The mobility of the audience creates a unique musical experience for each individual.
