International Contemporary Ensemble and Skerpla Ensemble present works by Anthony Braxton and Bergrún Snæbjörnsdóttir.
The concert took place in Harpa, Reykjavík, Roulette, Brooklyn, New York and somewhere in the Bay Area, California.
The concert was a part of Dark Music Days.
The International Contemporary Ensemble has been working with Tri-Centric Foundation and Nokia Bell Labs Experiments in Art and Technology on structuring multi-site collaborations. This research will be put into action with a livestream performance of work by Anthony Braxton, under the direction of James Fei, and a world premiere of Bergrún Snæbjörnsdóttir’s Ecognosis. Ensemble members will be joined by special guests Fay Victor and Darius Jones as well as musicians in Reykjavik, Skerpla Ensemble from Iceland University of the Arts (IUA), for this synchronous livestream.
