At CNMAT, Berkeley on March 4th

I'll be joining Amar in a duo set, as part of his Regents' Lecturer Series part II. Here are full details:

Friday, March 4, 8:00 - 10:30 pm

Center for New Music and Audio Technologies (CNMAT)
1750 Arch Street
Berkeley, CA

CNMAT and the UC Berkeley Regents' Lecturer program present and evening of music by Amar Chaudhary.

The concert will feature a variety of new and existing pieces based on Amar's deep experience and dual identity in technology and the arts. He draws upon diverse sources as jazz standards, Indian music, film scores and his past research work, notably the Open Sound World environment for real-time music applications. The program includes performances with instruments on laptop, iPhone and iPad, acoustic grand piano, do-it-yourself analog electronics and Indian and Chinese folk instruments. He will also premier a new piece that utilizes CNMAT's unique sound spatialization resources.

The Regents' Lecturer series features several research and technical talks in addition to this concert. Visit http://www.cnmat.berkeley.edu/ for more information.

All about Theatre of Yugen's Cordelia

Theatre of Yugen has a new blog, and they've posted an overview of their world premiere play Cordelia, which I'll be playing music in.

Review of December 18th concert

Here it is. Thanks to Amar for being there, writing it up and taking photos.

My next performing project

This is what's up next for me. I will be playing flutes and chanter, and percussionist Anna Wray will play piccolo snare and shruti box, to accompany this modern Noh play and its interpretation of King Lear, sideways through the eyes of Cordelia.

On this day in history...

...my life ended, and somehow inexplicably, kept going on at the same time.
