OCEANS ROAR 1000 DRUMS
MATTHEW GOODHEART

The international music group OCEANS ROAR 1000 DRUMS(with members in Berlin, NYC, and Norway), on tour for the first time in California to support a new release on the Sacred Realism label. Building on their musical language developed over the past 15 years of playing spontaneous music together, Todd Capp and Bryan Eubanks will work in an electro-acoustic formation of drums, saxtronics, and modular synthesizer for these concerts.

With his work described as “An exacting and fascinating meeting of art, music and science” (Jazzwise) and “extraordinary listening experiences” (Westdeutsch Zeitung), composer, performer, and sound installation artist MATTHEW GOODHEART interleaves live performance and immersive sound environments in a hybrid world of composition, improvisation, interactive electronics, and spatial sound installation. Utilizing a technique known as “reembodied sound,” in which instruments are actuated via tactile transducers so that they appear to sound autonomously, he investigates the interrelationship between acoustics, space, sound production, and technology. In this concert, he will present a set of recent solo works combining transducer-actuated metal percussion and piano in an evolving series of eclectic and ethereal soundscapes.

Cost: $10-$25 sliding scale
