ICE returns to the Oberlin College Artist Recital Series to play classic music of iconic noise pioneer Iannis Xenakis and a brand new work by modern sound poet David Lang. Greek composer Iannis Xenakis was a composer, a mathematician, an architect, a mystic, and a radical music theorist. Pulitzer prize-winning composer David Lang’s music casts a radiant and rhythmic energy. Master percussionist and Xenakis scholar Steve Schick will open the program with his world-renowned performance of Psappha, and the program will build in instrumental forces until ICE takes over the entire stage, ending with Xenakis’ final work, O-Mega.The program features a World Premiere of a new work by David Lang written for ICE.
