Sensoria | Bridges presents an evening of new music for electronics and hybrid performance practices. The concert features “My Heart Sings – Silent”, a stunningly beautiful composition by Jon Welstead and upper Midwest noise merchants Bridges of Königsberg (Christopher Burns, David Collins, and Peter J. Woods). Opening the concert are two world premieres: a new interdisciplinary collaboration by Paul Mitchell and Warren Enström; and CutUpFemmePop featuring Amanda Schoofs’ signature experimental and operatic vocal style, infused with twenty-first century electronic aesthetics.
