New Zealand-based Jack Body has written electroacoustic compositions using field recordings from Indonesia (an...
d has also written for the Kronos Quartet.) We’ll hear his collage of street sounds and toys that ends with pigeons taking off, each with different sized whistles attached. Also, there’s music from New Zealand composer Gareth Farr, who incorporates the sounds of Indonesian gamelan music into his writing. Plus, composer/performer Phil Dadson coaxes and explores weird sounds (PVC pipes, tubes & water glasses) into a ritual event with his performance troupe From Scratch (a percussive and occasionally sax-y precursor to drum/dance shows like 'Stomp' and Blue Man.) Listen to a few of those drones and beatings on this New Sounds. And much more. PROGRAM #3187, New Music from New Zealand (First aired on 3-29-11)
