Matt Sargent performs "The Fragility of Time," an immersive, hour-long guitar work by James Romig. The performance starts off Sargent's west coast tour of Romig's music to celebrate the CD release of "The Fragility of Time" on A Wave Press (Los Angeles). The concert will be open with a new piece by Casey Anderson (electronics) and Matt Sargent (guitar).
Matt Sargent (b. 1984) is a composer, guitarist, and recording engineer based in upstate New York, where he is an assistant professor of music at Bard College.
His albums include Illuminations (Sawyer Editions, 2024), Bend (Waveform Alphabet, 2023), Between Time and After (Chen Li Music, 2023), Tide (A Wave Press, 2020), Separation Songs (Cold Blue Music, 2019), Tide (for ten basses) (Marginal Frequency, 2019), and Ghost Music (Weighter Recordings, 2018).
His compositions have been described as “bringing a sharpened sense of the transcendental into the 21st century.” (Paul Muller, Sequenza21) On Ghost Music, Bill Meyer writes, “this music isn’t about following in anyone’s footsteps; it uses bare resources to establish a bounded and essential place.” (The Wire Magazine) His guitar work on Bend, a duo album with synthesist Dani Dobkin, was described as “a guitar record retrieved from far in the future.” (Antonio Poscic, Research Music)
