Meditative and transformative works for piano and toy piano by North American experimental music giants Alvin Curran, Alvin Lucier and Gayle Young.

Xenia will chart a journey through Alvin Curran’s “Inner Cities” 2 and 3 for piano and toy piano, which inhabit and move through intimate sonic narratives. Alvin Lucier’s classic “Music for Piano with Slow Sweep Pure Wave Oscillators” takes the listener into a mind-bending headspace by exploring tunings and resonant spaces in a shifting landscape where nothing is what it seems. The performance will conclude with the world premiere of Canadian experimental composer Gayle Young’s “As Trees Grow”, a deeply contemplative work exploring natural durations of text meditated upon by the performer.
