Breakout star cellist Ashley Bathgate, in collaboration with the Brooklyn-based composer collective Sleeping Giant (Timo Andres, Chris Cerrone, Jacob Cooper, Ted Hearne, Robert Honstein, and Andrew Norman), creates a new recital experience in the West Coast premiere of BACH UNWOUND, a radical deconstruction and re-imagination of the iconic Unaccompanied Cello Suites of J.S. Bach.
The subterranean concert experience will be held in soon to be opened music lounge, Underground, located in the basement beneath Festival Hall in downtown Santa Ana.
A single, concert-length work, this multi-composer collaboration incorporates extended performance techniques, live electronics, and multimedia, juxtaposing contemporary and historical practice to create a brand new live musical journey.
Each member of the Sleeping Giant has created one movement of this new work, basing it loosely on a corresponding movement of their choice from the original Bach suites, while using the music as an inspiration for expressing and expanding his personal compositional voice.
BACH UNWOUND is the newest installment of Santa Ana Sites, a traveling art forum that presents contemporary artists in experimental spaces.
