On Thursday, November 20, Dariusz Mazurowski will participate in two concerts during Audio Art Festival (Krakow) : the first one (CIME / PSeME) is scheduled for 6 pm at the Jan Matejko Academy of Fine Arts (program contains multichannel version of Far Beyond the Heliopause – part 6 of Non Acoustic Symphony). The same day, at 9 pm at the Bunkier Sztuki (concert under GrupLab flag) Dariusz Mazurowski will perform his electroacoustic piece Clash of Icy Bodies for percussion and tape (with Tomek Chołoniewski – percussion). 

Third part of Non Acoustic Symphony – The Great Red Spot of Jupiter – has been selected by international committee to be performed live during The International Computer Music Conference (ICMC2014) jointly with the Sound and Music Computing (SMC2014) Conference that will be held in Athens, Greece (from 14 to 20 September 2014). This performance will take place on Monday, 15th of September at the Onassis Cultural Centre Main Hall. Due to the restriction of the conference / concert series its possible to perform only one mid size piece per composer – some other works by Dariusz Mazurowski will be available in special listening rooms.

New acousmatic piece / collage – Entrance from 53, Ligovsky pr. – was performed live during concert at Contemporary Art Center SOLVAY in Krakow (as a part of NISHA concert series) on Wednesday, 26th of August. Source acoustic material was recorded during my workshop at ESG-21 (Saint Petersburg) as series of instrumental improvisations – featuring Max Evstropov, Christine Kazarian, Denis Sorokin, Boris Shershenkov, Andrey Popovsky, Vera Bezrukova and Marat Goya.

Thanks to ESG-21 invitation and massive support from the Polish Institute in Saint Petersburg I had the opportunity to play two (I hope nice…) concerts in this beautiful city and conduct workshop focused on electroacoustic music and improvisation. It was a great artistic adventure and hope there will be another opportunity to visit Saint Petersburg again.

The first concert took place on Saturday, June 28, during the LEMESG Electroacoustic \ Improvisation festival at the ESG-21 (organized to celebrate 15th anniversary of this venue), a part of the Art-Center Pushkinskaya-10 (which celebrated 25th anniversary BTW). Here are two photos taken during the concert (for documentary video excerpts please visit VIDEO page). For the final part of my set Nikolay Rubanov and Vladimir Luchansky joined me to play a spontaneous and improvised electroacoustic trio.

Small multimedia exhibition of video, scores and graphic works.

 

The second concert took place on Sunday, June 29, at the Erarta Museum of Contemporary Art and contained world premiere live performance of the complete version of brand new large scale composition : Non Acoustic Symphony. This event was organized by Erarta, Denis Rubin, with Boris Shershenkov help and obviously support from the Polish Institute in Saint Petersburg. Some photos are here, video excerpts (just documentary, with somehow “bootleg” sound, which gives the impression of a real concert) may be found on VIDEO page. All video footage by Boris Shershenkov (thanks !).

I’ve met many interesting, nice people and had a great time. I’m unable to list all people I should say thank You : Boris, Andrey and everyone from ESG-21, Denis, Max, Vladimir, Nikolay, Ilia, Sergey, Igor, Patrick, Christine, all participants in my workshop and many others. Thank You all very much !

Very special thanks to the Polish Institute in Saint Petersburg for help, support and care – esp. to Natalia Bryżko-Zapór (the director) and Natalia Pilugina. Many thanks to Polish General Consulate in Saint Petersburg for care. See You all soon again !
