ROOM: Sax Violins Language!
John O'Keefe (language)
Benjamin Kreith (violin)
Phillip Greenlief (saxophone)
with
Pamela Z (voice & electronics)
Pamela Z Arts' intimate avant chamber series is proud to present an evening with playwright John O'Keefe, violinist Benjamin Kreith, and saxophonist
Phillip Greenlief. The artists will perform solos and works in various ensemble configurations, and
Pamela Z will join them for some duo and tutti moments.
John O'Keefe delivers his prose with such nuance and kinetic energy that his speech becomes a music in and of itself. Benjamin Kreith's violin sings contemporary music with startling range from searing bites to warm fluidity.
Phillip Greenlief's saxophone speaks with an expansive sound vocabulary and disarming wit. Together and separately, they will fill the ROOM with sonic surprises and infuse each other's sets with audible interventions and excited utterances.
Royce Gallery, 2901 Mariposa Street #18, San Francisco, CA 94110

BREATHING is a movement from Carbon Song Cycle (a inter-media chamber work by composer/performer Pamela Z and visual artist Christina McPhee). The work was originally written for voice & electronics, bassoon, viola, cello, percussion, and tape. This is a solo version performed by the composer (with just voice, processing, and tape), recorded at a 3/13/2014 duo concert with Joan La Barbara as part of the 2014 ROOM Series. Pamela Z is using a gesture controller (designed and built by Donald Swearingen). © 2013 Last Letter Music (ASCAP)
