摘要:

For Historical & Contemporary Approaches to the Daxophone, The Daxophone Consort takes the audience on a tour of the daxophone. In this workshop, the audience will learn about the material properties of the instrument, such as those of wood and amplification, and be introduced various aspects of performance practice. The Consort also will demonstrate other music made with a daxophone by its notable practitioners in the instrument’s short history, such as its inventor Hans Reichel and its Japanese champion, Kazuhisa Uchihashi.
Daniel Fishkin, Cleek Schrey, and Ron Shalom comprise the U.S.’s only extant daxophone consort. The daxophone is a thin wooden strip played with a bow, which was created by the German improviser/inventor Hans Reichel in 1987. The instrument’s sound, somewhere between a cello and badger, ranges from furtive gurgles and delicate whistles to wild screams. The trio develops realizations of historical experimental music, commissions new work, and generates new pieces. Collaborators have included the viola da gamba consort Science Ficta, composer Alvin Lucier, and experimental vocalists Judith Berkson and Shelley Hirsch.
