DEPARTURE DUO / CHERYL E. LEONARD + WOBBLY

WEST OAKLAND SOUND SERIES

Boston-based DEPARTURE DUO (Nina Guo, soprano and Edward Kass, double bass) returns to the Bay Area presenting a program of high-low works:

For Charles North’s 15 Poems and Liner Notes 2 by Christian Wolff
Mouthpiece 43 by Erin Gee
Garden Clocks by Njabulo Phungula
Linear B by Andrew Watts

CHERYL LEONARD makes field recordings of natural soundscapes, and builds and plays electroacoustic instruments made out of natural materials such as bones, driftwood, shells, seaweed, feathers, and stones. WOBBLY sees the long histories of feedback and generative music as attempts to better understand what all those animals are singing about. Recently they've been driving to the Marin Headlands to make hydrophone recordings of the Newt Pond that was once an anti-aircraft gun turret, you know the one, but if you haven't stuck your head underwater to hear the sound of photosynthesizing pond W**d, don't -- those newts are poisonous.
