The Peabody Computer Music Consort is proud to present bassist
Robert Black to the Peabody Community for a solo recital on
Thursday February 27 (7:30 p.m. in Griswold Hall; admission is
free). Perhaps best known for his pursuit of contemporary music,
Robert Black's 1996 O.O. Discs
recording State of the Bass
saw the artist performing with computer-controlled delays, electric,
electric-upright, and MIDI Bass. His current program should include Iannis
Xenakis's 1976 work Theraps as well as Christian Wolff's 1991 Look,
She Said. Black will also be hosting a Bass Department Master class
on February 25 (time/location TBA). For more information on Black's
groundbreaking solo work or his ensemble work with the genre-defying
Bang on a Can All-Stars look for
Mike Giuliano's piece in the January/February 2003 Peabody News.
