tammen.org/ens_teo.html
Hans Tammen uses Earle Brown's open form composition idea as a starting point to create a large multi-movement piece, thoroughly composed and purely improvised at the same time, inspired by West African roots of Jazz, Miles Davis' Bitches Brew, Steve Coleman, and Stravinsky's layering or Steve Reich's phase techniques. Drawing from a single repertoire of around 100 pre-conceived musical units, the conductor uses the orchestra as an instrument, while each performer shapes the music through virtuosic improvisation and the individual stylization of musical performance. "Everything about Third Eye Orchestra... indicates mastery and control" (Howard Mandel / CD Liner Notes)

CJM Sounds
Part of IPR's Chamber Music Month
ISSUE Project Room
At the Old American Can Factory
232 3rd Street, 3rd Floor
Brooklyn, NY 11215
directions
CJM Sounds features a set of compositions created by composer/performer Chris McIntyre. morphi studies is an on-going project that situates the trombone's sound and idioms within various types of electronically produced contexts. It is a collection of short works created as both a solo vehicle for the composer and as a way to explore the capabilities of MAX/MSP and conventional "tape piece" techniques. quartet music for trumpet, horn, bass trombone, and Nord Lead 2 was first inspired by a commission from the organization Composer's Concordance and the brass trio B3+. Part 1, since revised, was premiered in March 2008. Tonight's performance is the premiere of the complete three-movement work. Its aesthetic lies somewhere between historical Vareseian "organized sound" and 21st century stylistic inclusivity. quartet music strives to be playerly ensemble music while proffering a distinctive vision of 21st century chamber music.
Program:
morphi studies for solo trombone and sound
McIntyre - trombone & laptop
quartet music: parts 1,2 and 3 for brass trio and Nord synth
Josh Frank - trumpet, Mike Atkinson - French horn, Dave Nelson - bass trombone, McIntyre - Nord Lead 2

The McIntyre/Waters Duo features two very active New York composer/performers and good friends in a multi-instrumental improvised pairing. Woodwind specialist Charles Waters is a co-founder of comprov ensemble Gold Sparkle Band, a regular member of Adam Rudolf's GO: Orchestra and William Parker's Little Huey Creative Orchestra, and leader of various projects presenting his own compositions. His scored works have been performed by SEM Ensemble, Anti-Social Music, and MATA Micro-orchestra, among others. Chris McIntyre organizes, plays trombone, and composes for projects including TILT Brass, Ne(x)tworks, and 7X7 Trombone Band, and has been heard in groups led by Anthony Coleman, Zeena Parkins, Elliott Sharp, and David First, as well as with SEM Ensemble, The Knights, and Gold Sparkle. He's recently been heard on both trombone and Nord synthesizer playing Stockhausen at The Stone and during the Arthur Russell tribute concerts at The Kitchen.

Time Out New York says:
"Yes, we’re prone to hyperbole on occasion, but trust us when we say that Darmstadt’s Essential Repertoire series, which runs through Oct 26, is one of the most significant musical presentations of the season. In each concert, prominent interpreters explore an aspect of contemporary-classical music past or present; the series gets underway with a program devoted to music of the New York School—John Cage, Earle Brown, Morton Feldman and Christian Wolff—and no one illuminates this realm with more sympathy and conviction than the players of Ne(x)tworks."
