Jürg Frey: "Unhörbare Zeit"
"Unhörbare Zeit" is a much needed American showcase of the music of the Swiss composer Jürg Frey, a longtime member of the Wandelweiser collective. Frey's music is often at the threshold of silence, requiring virtuosity of a different kind: extreme sensitivity to sound and timbre. The concert features at its center the American premiere of the monumental work "Unhörbare Zeit (Streichquarttet & Schlagzeug)", commissioned by the Bozzini Quartet the subject of a 2007 documentary by Urs Graf. It will be performed here by String Noise (Conrad Harris & Pauline Kim Harris) with members of FLUX Quartet, Talujon Percussion, and S.E.M. Ensemble.
The concert also features a reprise of "Ohne Titel (2 Violinen)" performed by String Noise, and the world premieres of parts of Frey's recent "Les tréfonds inexplorés des signes" series, written for composer-performer ensemble The Dream Team during the trio's 2012 US tour.
