Jeff Carey+Audrey Chen+Raed Yassin+Morten J. Olsen Quartet
American composer
JEFF CAREY’S music is a blend of
fixed-media composition and electro-instrumentalism — the music of the
visceral, ecstatic, and electric moment. His inventions of fluid sound
are in an ever changing state: a mobile moves in the wind, changes
shape, and is in constant renewal. Listeners are invited to explore an
abstract sonic universe and engage in a world inspired by fictional
cosmology, code breaking, and mathematical conundrums.

AUDREY CHEN is a Chinese-American musician and
performance artist born outside of Chicago in 1976. Using the cello,
voice and analog electronics, Chen’s work focuses on the combination
and layering of traditional and extended techniques. A large component
of her music is improvised and her approach to this is often extremely
personal and visceral. Her performance work incorporates sound,
movement and visual/sculptural concepts.
