TOWER RING by PAULINE OLIVEROS
The World Premiere of Tower Ring, a new work by legendary composer Pauline Oliveros will resonate the walls of the magnificent tower created by artist Ann Hamilton at the Oliver Ranch in Geyserville California. The listening audience from their positions on the double Helix stairways will intimately experience vibrant sensations emanating from a rising and descending traditional orchestral gong. Didjeridu, choral voices, an eight story long wire instrument and shimmering bells will add to a tapestry of sounds that can only be experienced in this structure.
Oliveros' historic composition, commissioned by the Oliver Ranch Foundation, is keyed to the eight stories of the Tower by a rising and descending gong and tiny bells played by audience members. In addition to the voices of members of the Cardew Choir directed by Tom Bickley, members of existing trios and quartets will be a part of the performance.
Performers include Chris Chafe * Stuart Dempster * Renko Dempster * David Gamper * Brenda Hutchinson * Ione * George Marsh * Pauline Oliveros * Christopher Pilafian
Jennifer Wilsey * The Cornelius Cardew Choir directed by Tom Bickley * Students of Mills College
The performances will benefit Deep Listening Institute, Ltd., a not-for profit organization that fosters a unique approach to music, literature, art and meditation, and promotes innovation among artists and audience in creating, performing, recording and educating with a global perspective.
