A split bill featuring composer and Artist David Behrman, and composer/performer Ben Neill

Composer and artist David Behrman will present current updates on a project he did together with Ben Neill and his Mutantrumpet in the 1980s and early 90s. The performers will be Ben Neill on Mutantrumpet and John King on guitar. Also on the program will be an excerpt from My Dear Siegfried (2004) with Thomas Buckner (voice), Peter Zummo (trombone) and Ralph Samuelson (shakuhachi). The composer will run the laptop for both pieces.  Composer/performer Ben Neill will present music for his self-designed Mutantrumpet and electronics, with percussion performed by Chris Nappi. The program will include new pieces based on texts by Terence McKenna, Rupert Sheldrake, and David Wojnarowicz, that use musical cryptography to generate sequences of pitch material that control the live sampled acoustic timbres of the Mutantrumpet. The program will also include Dis-Solution 2, for Mutantrumpet and percussion composed in 1986.
